2.6.2015

Question for written answer E-008969-15
to the Commission
Rule 130
Julie Girling (ECR)

How can TRACES (TRAde Control and Expert System) be used to relocate unwanted dogs from one Member States to another Member State where there are homes where they are wanted?

Is the Commission aware that Greek veterinarians are refusing to use this system to facilitate the relocation of stray dogs in Greece?
