New laws for dogs that help survey

Do you think it is right for Queensland Government to make a new law (an Act) that will give a right of access to all people with a disability who want to go into public places with their guide dog, hearing dog or assistance dog?

What do you think about allowing the chief executive of Disability Services Queensland to approve all dog trainers? (We describe dog trainers as those trainers who train dogs for people who have a disability.)

Do you think assistance dog handlers should be given and made to carry identification cards that show their dog is an assistance dog?

Do you think that assistance dogs should be tested every two years to see that they can still safely and effectively assist their handlers in public places?

Do you think that assistance dogs should be made to wear a coat and collar that distinguishes them from guide dogs?

Are there any places that you think a dog should not be allowed to go with its handler for reasons of health for hygiene?
