Dear Sir or Madam,

I am contacting you concerning the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, as
amended, legislation.

1) How many dogs have been seized by the council under Section One
of the Dangerous Dogs Act in each year from 2000 to 2008?

2) How many prosecutions under Section One of the Dangerous Dogs
Act did the council proceed with in 2007 and 2008?

3)How many dogs have been seized under Section One of the Dangerous
Dogs Act so far this year (2009)? Of those seized, how many have
been signed over for destruction by their owners?

4) How many applications have been made to the magistrates court
under section 4b of the Dangerous Dogs Act in the last three years?
Of those 4b applications, how many resulted in destruction orders
and how many resulted in registration onto the Index of Exempted
Dogs?

5) How many dogs are currently held under Section One of the
Dangerous Dogs Act by Newham Borough Council?

6) How many dogs have been handed over to Newham Borough Council
dog wardens as dogs prohibited under the Dangerous Dogs Act -
illegally owned pit bull terrier types?

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

Amanda Dunckley
