Schedule 3 - Hunting with Dogs: Prohibition
Hunting Bill
4:30 pm
Mr John Maples (Stratford-on-Avon, Conservative)
Surely that is incorrect. The law of trespass would protect the landowner even if the Bill were to be enacted. If people do not have express or implied permission, the landowner is entitled to take whatever steps the law allows to stop them. The current situation is that he would not need the criminal law.
