Local Companion Animals Management Plan

Last modified: November 4, 2008 - 3:55 PM

With increasing urbanisation, tension between different interest groups in the community has increased, necessitating a new approach to the management of companion animals.

It has been apparent that the pursuance of policing of legislation and of prosecution for offences, although effective, has been singularly insufficient to achive the desired effect of proper management of companion animals.  The focus must be moved from only using enforcement and control to incorporate education and best practice principles. 

This Local Companion Animals Management Plan aims to provide a balanced approach and to outline the community expectations and the role and responsibilities of various stakeholders (including Local Government).

Council at its Ordinary Meeting held on 24 October 2007, resolved to adopt the Companion Animals Management Plan 2007.
