COASTAL ACCESS FOR DOGS
Early day motion 1627, tabled 21 May 2008 by Ian Cawsey (Labour). Signed by 25 members.
That this House believes the proposed Marine Bill should increase access to the English and Welsh coasts for dogs and responsible dog owners along with other land users; appreciates the considerable health benefits that regularly walking a dog can bring; recognises that dog owners have a legal responsibility to provide their dogs with adequate exercise; and notes the environmental benefits of dog owners being able to access land within their local areas, without having to drive elsewhere.
