Badger Baiting

EDM number 1175 in 1997-98, proposed by Ivor Caplin on 31/03/1998.

That this House expresses alarm at a report from Sussex Police that a badger's corpse was found with face and snare wounds in an Eastbourne skip on 29 March; notes that information has been received to suggest badger baiting is going on in the area; believes that snaring and using badgers for fighting with dogs is both illegal and cruel; and urges Sussex Police to bring those responsible to justice as soon as possible.

This motion has been signed by a total of 69 MPs.
