Background Information: Dog Control Orders automatically convert to Public Spaces Protection Orders in October 2017. The current orders have been reviewed and new areas considered. The results of the consultation will be presented along with the Public Spaces Protection Order for dog control The PSPO is not a means of unduly restricting the exercising or recreation of dogs across the city, but to address the irresponsible behaviour of a small minority of dog owners; and to set out a clear standard to which all dog owners are required to follow.
