Bill agreed to.

Domestic Animals (Breeding) Legislation Amendment Bill 2015

Debate resumed from 19 February 2015, on motion by Mr Rattenbury:

That this bill be agreed to in principle.

MR COE (Ginninderra) (4.09): The opposition will be supporting the passing of the Domestic Animals (Breeding) Legislation Amendment Bill 2015. In essence, this bill creates two different mechanisms to help stamp out inappropriate breeding practices for cats and dogs in the territory. The bill is not intended to punish legitimate breeders; instead it is intended to stop and punish those who would disregard animal welfare in order to make a commercial gain or profit.
