Proceeding contribution from Chris Huhne (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill 2005-06.
Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill
: I am also happy to support the amendments, with which we broadly agree. There is a contrast between the provisions for the inspectors’ powers and the Government’s previous stubbornness on what is now the Animal Welfare Act. They resisted the cause of my hon. Friend the Member for Lewes (Norman Baker) to allow witnesses to intervene in the case of cruelty when it is clearly visible, for example, in a garden or an open yard.
