Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Shaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 June 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Dangerous Dogs.


Dangerous Dogs

I regret that I do not recall the hon. Gentleman's Adjournment debate. I was in the Whips' Office at the time, and Adjournment debates are not necessarily the focus of the Whips' attention, as they tend to focus on votes in the House. He makes a fair point, and I hope to show that we have been through a process, in which we have talked to all the relevant agencies involved, including councils in London, the RSPCA and the police, about how we can enforce the legislation better.
