§ Dame Peggy FennerTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has received the Royal Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Animal's proposals for a dog registration scheme; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mrs. Virginia BottomleyI have been asked to reply.
The RSPCA sent to the Department its proposals for a dog registration scheme on 3 December 1987. We have no plans to introduce such a scheme.
