Will the Minister outline the Welsh Government's plans in 2024 to tackle livestock worrying in Wales?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
Following the fall of the Kept Animals Bill in May 2023, my Officials are working closely with DEFRA to investigate how this all-important provision can be progressed.
The issue was also raised at the multi-agency Summit that I held on responsible ownership on 18 October, the outcomes of which were provided in my written statement of 6 December. I plan to hold a follow up session early in the year to discuss further.
