Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Alan Meale (Labour), on Tuesday, 10 June 2014, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 46 members in total.


BADGER GASSING

That this House is concerned by recent reports that the Government has been authorising secret trials gassing badger setts, even though its own earlier research has indicated that such methods regularly failed to work; notes that such practices were banned in England nearly three decades ago when they were found to be cruel, harmful and useless; and calls on the Government to cease all field trials of such methods immediately.
