Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House: that large numbers of domestic dogs are being killed in peri-urban areas through the use of commercially available baits containing 1080 poison.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to:

1. Review exclusions zones and distance requirements to improve community safety.

2. Review public education and enforcement of existing terms of supply under Section 18(1) of Health (Drugs and Poisons) Regulation 1996.
