My Lords, the Minister knows the countryside well, and she must know that huge numbers of jobs will be lost if trail-hunting is banned. What is the justification for this when so few people have been prosecuted for illegal hunting? If a couple of Peers behave badly, we get rid of them; we do not get rid of the whole House of Lords—surely she should look at that example.

Do not open that Pandora’s box—that is what I would say to the noble Baroness. More seriously, I know that there are concerns on both sides. This is a polarising debate, with strong feelings on both sides. That is why I am determined to hold a proper, detailed consultation, where everyone has the ability to put forward their concerns, so that we can move forward in a way that delivers our manifesto commitment, while at the same time making sure that we do what we can to mitigate any concerns that are put forward.

On the issue before the House in the original Question, we are going to phase it out, and we have an opportunity through our strategy to show the direction of travel.

A Pet dog travelling from GB-NI will require a free, simple, electronic, life-long ‘pet travel document’, administered by the government. The pet document does not need to be issued by a vet and does away with all health treatments. This can be sorted in a matter of minutes. For people that don’t have digital access, there will be an alternative simple means of providing the same information when you book your and your pets’ travel, for example via the ferry booking system.
Is it not time that we relooked at the idea of bringing back dog licence fees, as happens in other parts of the United Kingdom, which work very successfully, with some exceptions, of course, for some people?
