Proceeding contribution from Lembit Opik (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Animal Welfare Bill.


Animal Welfare Bill

Is the Secretary of State satisfied that the Bill clearly defines the point at which the status of birds being reared for game shooting changes, and is she satisfied that there is a clear understanding of the issues related to game rearing, such as the use of cages in certain circumstances? Given that the British Association for Shooting and Conservation and other organisations share her concern about the issues raised by the hon. Member for Newport, West (Paul Flynn) a moment ago, can she assure us that there will be an opportunity to create an accord, using a code of conduct, that satisfies everybody?
