FOI request (FOIR-225815839)

Zoo Licensing

Requested Wed 08 July 2020
Responded Wed 22 July 2020

I am writing from international animal welfare and conservation organisation Born Free. We are currently in the process of contacting all relevant Local Authorities in the UK, requesting details of all premises with Zoo Licences under the Zoo Licensing Act 1981 (as amended), in order to update our records and track changes nationwide.

If your records have not changed since our request last year, we would still be grateful if you could send the requested information to enable us to maintain accurate records and mark the council as providing a complete return.

If your Local Authority has formed a partnership with another authority, please include information for all relevant constituencies.

Under the Freedom of Information Act, please:

1. Download the information table found here www.bornfree.org.uk/council. Once downloaded please complete the Word document

2. For each premises with a Zoo Licence, return a copy of the most recent annual zoo stocklist outlining births, arrivals, deaths etc. in accordance with Section 9.5 of the Secretary of State's Standards of Modern Zoo Practice.

3. For each premises with a Zoo Licence, return a copy of the most recent Zoo Inspection Report for 'formal' periodical or renewal inspections carried out under S.10 or S.14.2 by Government-appointed Zoo Inspectors. Please ensure all pages (1-10) plus any pages with additional conditions are included.

Response
