Ensure compulsory recording of implanted microchip

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Many animals found straying are unable to be reunited because although microchipped, their details are not registered with a recognised database.

There is no requirement for implanters to register the microchips with the keeper's details once implanted. If it were a requirement it would make it easier to reunite the animal or find out who is responsible for it in case of any incidents involving that animal.

Why it was rejected

Make it law to have every pet microchip registered to national insurance number
