Jennifer Barnes

Dear Test Valley Borough Council,

I am a MSc Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law student at the University of Winchester. As part of my dissertation, I am looking at how many licenses under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) 2018 Regulations for the exhibition of animals have been issued in England. To gain this information I must make a Freedom of Information request.
I would like to make a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act (2000). I would like information on licenses to exhibit animals under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) 2018 Regulations ONLY, issued by the Council.
Can I please request information on:

1. How many licenses are currently issued to exhibit animals under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) 2018 Regulations in your council?

2. A list of the species of animal that are included in the licenses, and how many of each species.

Yours faithfully,
Jennifer Barnes
