Question
Will the Cabinet Secretary outline the Government's projected timeline to introduce measures to regulate rehoming centres in Wales?
Answer
Answered by Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs
The potential licensing of rescues, sanctuaries and rehoming establishments was included in our consultation on the Licensing of Animal Welfare Establishments, Activities and Exhibits which closed on 01 March 2024 with over a thousand responses received. I intend to publish a Summary of Responses and Next Steps this Autumn and would not want to pre-empt its outcomes at this time.
