Dog management in the EU

29.5.2012

Question for written answer E-005345/2012
to the Commission
Rule 117
Emer Costello (S&D)

What action is the Commission taking, or planning to take, in response to Parliament’s written declaration of 13 October 2011 on dog population management in the EU (P7_TA(2011)0444)? I refer in particular to the call on the Commission to encourage Member States to introduce mandatory identification and registration of every dog by means of EU‑wide compatible systems, in order to avoid the spread of diseases.
