## Notice

In accordance with section 149 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990, Cheshire East Council has a statutory requirement to deal with stray dogs within the borough. The council must take in stray docs for the statutory 7-day period, after which time the dogs become the property of the kennels and are available for re-homing. This contract is aimed at the provision of kennelling for the statutory 7-day period to allow owners to collect their dogs and to arrange suitable rehoming of dogs where an owner does not come forward within the statutory period. The contract will also require cover to be provided for the Council Dog Warden Service. The period of the contract is 17th June 2024 - 16th June 2027 with no options to extend.
