Proceeding contribution from Andrew Selous (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 October 2021. It occurred during Debate on bill on Animal Welfare (Kept Animals) Bill.


Animal Welfare (Kept Animals) Bill

I am conscious of how much puppy prices have increased, particularly during the pandemic. While I welcome the reduction to five pets per person, I am a little concerned that if they were five high-value puppies, that may be still be worth a criminal’s while. Will the Secretary of State be prepared to keep that number under review, for higher-value puppies in particular?
