Animal welfare in New Zealand – have your say

Time is running out to have your say on Government’s animal welfare proposals.  Submissions close on 28 September 2012.

Visit this site to download the discussion document containing proposals.

Changes are being proposed to standards of care and conduct towards animals and the role of the National Animal Welfare Advisory Committee.

Is there a role for a Commissioner for Animals?  How do you feel about breed specific legislation?   These are just some of the issues relating to animal welfare and your dog that you might like to consider in making a submission.

Instead of picking up the newspaper this weekend, how about reading the discussion document and working on your submission first?
