Proceeding contribution from Norman Baker (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Animal Welfare Bill.


Animal Welfare Bill

I find the Minister’s comments odd. Clearly, there are potential welfare implications in relation to any live creature. The Government have legislation in place to deal with poultry kept as farm animals, for example, so why does the Minister believe there are no considerations regarding poultry sold at pet fairs?
