GREAT NEWS ON ELECTRIC SHOCK TRAINING COLLARS

Elin Jones has announced in a Ministerial Statement that she intends to totally ban the use of Electronic Training Devices in Wales.

In her original consultation she announced that she was minded to allow exceptions to the ban on the use of such devices in certain circumstances.

I have always believed in an unconditional ban and the Minister has listened to the submissions made on this issue, not least from the Kennel Club, and changed her mind.

This is great news and I hope the European Commission will signal its approval of this measure at the earliest opportunity so we can introduce a ban on these unnecessary and cruel devices as soon as possible.”
