Hunting With Dogs

EDM number 122 in 2008-09, proposed by John McDonnell on 04/12/2008.
Categorised under the topic of Animal welfare.

That this House notes that prior to Parliament's decision to outlaw the hunting of wild animals with dogs, a reported 50,000 hunt members and supporters signed a declaration that they would disobey such a law; further notes that there is mounting evidence that hunts are avoiding the law and by various devices are continuing the barbaric practice of hunting foxes down to a bloody kill and claiming that such kills are accidental; and therefore calls on the Government to act to prevent this abuse of the spirit of the anti-hunting legislation by means of an amendment to the Hunting Act to include a reckless behaviour clause.

This motion has been signed by a total of 103 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
