Statute overview

About this statute

This provision is the preamble of Law 2054 of 2020, which states that Congress of Colombia enacts a law modifying Law 1801 of 2016 and other provisions. The provision states that its purpose is to reduce the social, animal-abuse, and public-health consequences of abandonment and irresponsible keeping of companion animals by supporting legally constituted shelters or foundations, while districts or municipalities create animal welfare centers. Districts and municipalities must provide a place for domestic animals, and first-category districts and municipalities must implement these rules within three years. Los distritos o municipios deben garantizar asistencia veterinaria para los animales bajo su cuidado, y pueden celebrar convenios con facultades de veterinaria o zootecnia para hacerlo. El distrito o municipio debe apoyar refugios o fundaciones privadas de animales y hacer jornadas periódicas de adopción y esterilización.
