Petition Action

Make it an offence Not to have a 'Poo Bag' on them in a Public Area.

Petition Details

With a number of Dog Owners 'NOT' picking up their Dogs Fouling Footpaths, Common ground and All other Public places, something needs to be done, Owners when asked 'Must' produce a waste bag or face a Fine or Ticket, also it makes sense that these Bags are Biodegradable which is not the case now.

Additional Information

We walk our dog and see in just our small area Owners pretend to pick it up with no bag in their hands and walk off after looking around, children and adults walk on it, on footpaths around schools a large amount left, it creates a Health issue as well as a long term Environmental impact with some owners after picking it up throw the bag into an overgrown area with the bags not breaking down.

This needs to be included in the Dog act with the Police having a scanner for chips and other checks.
