Clause 1 - Hunting wild mammals with dogs
Hunting (Re-committed) Bill
10:30 pm
Mr Hugo Swire (East Devon, Conservative)
Can the Minister identify three points that came out of the Portcullis house hearings, the Burns report, and the lobbying of the pro-hunting group—or animal welfare group, for that matter—on which he has changed his mind since he presented his Bill? Were any of those considerations taken into account in the new Bill? If not, would not it be better for the Minister to resign, as he clearly does not believe in the Bill?
