EAST RIDING COUNCIL is carrying out a consultation on Dog Control Orders.
A Dog Exclusion Order makes it an offence for a person in charge of a dog to take the dog onto, or allow it to enter or remain on land from which dogs are excluded.
A Dogs on Leads Order makes it an offence if a person in charge of a dog fails to keep it on a lead.
An offence carries a Fixed Penalty Notice of £75.
