Animal Cruelty With Fireworks

EDM number 921 in 2005-06, proposed by Diana R Johnson on 02/11/2005.

That this House notes with abhorrence the case of the Yorkshire terrier killed in Linthwaite, West Yorkshire, by having a firework tied to it and ignited; further notes that this is the first year of the operation of the full provisions of the Fireworks Act 2003; further notes that the Government is aiming to make further progress in eliminating cruelty against animals in the Animal Welfare Bill; therefore calls upon the Government to review within two years the effectiveness of the Fireworks Act 2003 in curbing dangerous and anti-social behaviour with fireworks; and, subject to such a review, asks the Government to consider whether it may be necessary to legislate further to ban the private sale of fireworks as the most workable and effective method of protecting law-abiding people and their pets from the cruel behaviour of a minority.

This motion has been signed by a total of 75 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
