The Portfolio Holder, Equalities, Diversity and Communities, presented the report which detailed the updated Animal Licensing Policy. She informed Members that, following the changes made by the Department for Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) a revised policy had been developed, which updated the current Animal Licensing Policy, which had been approved by the Licensing Committee on 31 October 2017. The original policy had been developed following a consultation process with DEFRA and had earned Exeter City Council a silver award from the RSPCA in October 2018.
