LegCo releases short video explaining new rules of allowing dogs in food premises
The following is issued on behalf of the Legislative Council Secretariat:
The Legislative Council (LegCo) today (May 7) took note of the report on Food Business (Amendment) Regulation 2026 and expressed its support for the Government to relax the ban on dogs entering food premises - a restriction that has been in place for over 30 years.
A spokesman for LegCo said, "To facilitate the public better understand the new regulations, the LegCo Secretariat has launched a new initiative by producing its first concise and short film. It aims to explain the regulation to the public in an easy-to-understand and down-to-earth manner. The video focuses on key enforcement points and highlights some common scenarios where violations may easily occur. This would help citizens in adhering to the law, while also promoting and creating an ideal pet-friendly environment. By spending about two minutes on the video, citizens will be able to grasp the key aspects of the new measure."
Members of the public are welcome to watch the video on LegCo Website: https://www.legco.gov.hk/en/photogallery/player.html?album=video&term=2026&id=415
The LegCo's spokesman added, "LegCo Members have always upheld the 'people-oriented' principle and are concerned about all matters related to people's livelihoods. The deliberations in LegCo are closely connected with people's daily lives. This new initiative of releasing promotional videos reflects the inseparable linkage between the work of LegCo and public communication. LegCo will continue to release new videos from time to time, facilitating the public to learn about various policies or ordinances easily."
