Dog Control Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) Consultation (closed 23/02/2018)

On the 20^th October 2017, as a requirement of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, the Councils existing Dog Control Orders became a single Public Space Protection Order. This change was automatic in law.

The Council is now reviewing these dog controls, so is consulting on a proposed amended Public Space Protection Order which would last for 3 years, following which it will need to be reviewed.

The proposals aim to create a balance so that dog owners can enjoy their dogs and ensure their welfare, whilst at the same time others can still enjoy public spaces without interference or impact from dogs and irresponsible dog ownership.

The consultation is now closed and the responses have been analysed and are shown graphically in the document below.
