Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Dear Members of the No Kill City Forum, In 2004 the No Kill Forum discussed at length our proposals on No Kill and we selected representatives to meet with the new Secretary of the Health, Food and Welfare Bureau, Dr York Chow, in January 2005. At the meeting Dr Chow listened to what we had to say and promised to get back to us with his response. We have been pushing for this reponse but have so far not received any definitive answers. Dr Chow has however now replaced the Director of the AFCD and has invited the same team as before to meet with the new Director, Ms Stella Hung - perhaps with himself present. We hope this meeting will take place before the end of this month - we intend to go through the same proposals and demand immediate response and action. We shall emphasise again that control of the supply of animals onto the market (breeding, importing and selling) is key to all aspects of improving animal welfare. If the production of animals can be kept low enough so that every animal born can be given a good home, then the problems of lost, abandoned and abused animals will be greatly alleviated. We have differing views on how to deal with the unwanted animals but I believe we are united in how to prevent the surplus. If anyone has any new ideas, please hit reply and tell us! If not, I shall report back to this group after the meeting. John, Chair, No Kill City Forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
