I remind the Committee that with this we are discussing amendment No. 14, in clause 8, page 4, line 29, at end insert—
'(3A) If an animal has been abandoned, any person who immediately before that time was a keeper of the animal shall continue to be a keeper of the animal for the purpose of this section until another person becomes keeper of it.'.
