Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 27 January 2026
782. Deputy Emer Currie asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the timeline for when he expects to receive recommendations regarding dog breeding legislation from the dog control stakeholder group; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5576/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Dog Control Stakeholder Group was established to consider policy and legislative matters, specifically the Dog Control Acts and the Dog Breeding Establishments Act. The group’s remit includes considering the need for legislative change. I am committed to reviewing all legislation relating to dogs and in this regard will be guided by the recommendations of the group. I expect the group to revert to me with recommendations in Q1, 2026.
