LIMERICK County Fianna Fรกil TD, Minister Niall Collins, has welcomed theย launch of a pet travel information on-line portal, bringing together in oneย location information about pet travel into Ireland.

This is a user-friendly portal which also providesย information for people travelling with assistance dogs, transiting Irelandย with pets, travelling or relocating out of Ireland with pets.
I know thatย for people transporting their pets can be a stressful time so I hope thisย new portal will greatly assist pet owners.”
