Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 July 2021. It occurred during Debate on Dog and Cat Meat Trade.
Dog and Cat Meat Trade
As the hon. Member for Morley and Outwood (Andrea Jenkyns) and I were saying beforehand, we understand that it is illegal to sell dog meat, but I understand that it is not illegal to consume it in the United Kingdom. In the past, I and the hon. Lady’s colleague —I am sorry, I cannot remember his constituency, so I will not mention his name—were pursuing legislative change with the former Minister. Do the Government have any intention of considering legislative changes to make it illegal to eat dog meat in this country?
