I have committed to reviewing the Animal Welfare (Breeding of Dogs) (Wales) Regulations 2014. This will include full consideration of any barriers to enforcement. In addition, we will help educate the public on how to purchase their pets responsibly and how to report suspicious activity to their local authority.
