Dangerous Dogs

Proceeding contribution from Angela Watkinson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 June 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Dangerous Dogs.
Does the hon. Gentleman share my concern that in some circumstances, the RSPCA does not have enough powers when it finds an animal in a state of neglect and the owners unresponsive to its advice? The animal has to be in a very bad state or injured before the RSPCA has the power to remove it. Sometimes, even with repeated visits, the owners do not respond to the good advice that they receive.
