Extension of Southwark?s dog rules

[legalalien]

I know issues about dogs in public spaces get a fair bit of airtime here, so thought it worth flagging that the council is proposing to extend its current dog antisocial behaviour rules which include rules about dog fouling and the number of dogs that dog walkers can have on/off leash) until 2024, with a consultation exercise to run from 2022 to decide what happens after that. Further info here http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/mgAi.aspx?id=59585&LLL=0. The background report summarises the existing rules, including rules about various cemeteries. They are going to review the signage in the Camberwell cemeteries in the near future.

Was only half-listening, but there was a lengthy discussion about this at this morning's Cabinet meeting, apparently the consultation on the original rules was the most responded to consultation ever. If anyone is really interested they will be able to watch the meeting back on the Southwark youtube channel.
