Schedule 3 - Hunting with Dogs: Prohibition
Hunting Bill
10:45 am
Mr David Lidington (Aylesbury, Conservative)
I hope that we shall have the opportunity to explore my hon. Friend's point. My reading of the Bill is that that risk would indeed exist. Having read both the description of the offences in part I and the list of exceptions in part II, I have not seen language to provide an absolute defence against such a prosecution.
