So, I see a dog having a poo, and the owner does not use a bag to pick it up. I have no authority, as a member of the Public, to ask for their name, address or phone number. So besides a Police Officer or Council representitive being there at the time, what will happen? BTW, you do not have to give your name to anyone except a Police Officer who is a Traffic Officer, or one who believes a crime has been committed. What a bloody waste of time!
