Animal rights group representatives and residents who attended an explanatory meeting yesterday about the government’s controversial assessment examination to exempt dogs from wearing a muzzle, slammed the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM) for coming up with “extremely strict” criteria for the test.
Senior IACM officials including its administrative committee member Ung Sau Hong and Choi U Fai, who heads the IACM Division of Animal Control and Inspection, attended the meeting held at the Civil Servants Training Centre (CFTSP) in Nape.
During the meeting, IACM officials revealed details of the examination drafted by a Hong Kong animal expert. The officials did not name the expert.
