Dangerous Dogs: Registration

Asked by Adam DanceLiberal DemocratDepartment for Environment, Food and Rural AffairsTabled Answered 7 April 2025UIN 43714

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when he plans to publish public guidance on the process for withdrawing certificates of exemption for dogs wrongly registered as XL Bullies.

Answered by Daniel Zeichner

We are currently working to develop a withdrawal scheme so that owners who no longer believe that their dog is an XL Bully can apply to have their certificate of exemption for their dog withdrawn. Information about this process will be available soon.
