Shortage Of Foxes

EDM number 438 in 2005-06, proposed by Paul Flynn on 28/06/2005.

That this House agrees with Simon Hart, Chief Executive of the Countryside Alliance, that his organisation would be ridiculed in Parliament on the publication of a letter sent by the Masters of Fox Hounds Association to 800 hunt masters warning of the nationwide shortage of foxes and urging landowners to breed more foxes to solve the problem; and welcomes this further evidence that foxhunting is unconnected with pest control.

This motion has been signed by a total of 41 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
