Dogs 2017

The request was successful.

Dear Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council,

1. How many dogs were put to sleep?
2. How many enforcement notices were issued regarding dogs without microchips?
3. How many enforcement notices were issued regarding dogs with out of date information on the microchip?
4. How many people were taken to court following an enforcement notice?
5. How much is the total of all fines or what is the average fine?

These are dog warden/animal control related questions for the year April 2016 - April 2017 (or the closest you keep records for).

Yours faithfully,

James Jones
