Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Animal Welfare Bill.
Animal Welfare Bill
My Lords, we do not think the Bill will impose additional financial burdens on local authorities. The costs of running the additional licence system should be balanced by the cost of obtaining a licence, which will be set locally to ensure that the administrative costs are met. The Defra database should provide an additional enforcement tool for inspectors. Resources should not be a problem, or indeed be used as an excuse for lack of action.
