Hackney Council currently has a Dog Control Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) in place. The purpose of this PSPO is to deal with issues that arise as a result of people failing to exercise proper control of dogs in public places. The current PSPO is due to expire on 17 March 2024 and can be viewed at: https://hackney.gov.uk/dog-control-orders 

The Council are proposing to extend the PSPO for a further three years, and vary the PSPO by:

• adding to the prohibitions / requirements stipulated in the PSPO,
• updating the list of locations from which dogs are excluded, and
• updating the list of locations in which dogs must be kept on a lead.

For more details of the background and what is being proposed please see: https://consultation.hackney.gov.uk/communications-engagement/dog-control-public-space-protection-order/
