Does the XL Bully ban make sense?

New legislation is being briefed to cabinet today regarding the banning of XL bullies. The proposed ban which will come into effect next Tuesday will ban the sale, breeding and importation of the breed and then on February 1st, 2025, it will be illegal to own a XL bully unless the owner has a Certificate of Exemption. Joining Kieran to discuss the rationale of the ban further is the person heading the ban, Heather Humphreys, Minister for Social Protection and Rural & Community Development as well as Marie Hannon, founder of Dogs in Distress.
