MPs will vote on banning hunting with dogs in England and Wales on 18 March, House of Commons leader Robin Cook told MPs on Thursday.
The Commons and the House of Lords will be asked to choose between the three options that were presented in the last parliament - a complete ban, the preservation of the status quo and the so-called "middle way".
The Commons is expected to vote for a ban, and the government is hoping the Lords will vote for regulation, rather than for no change.
This would open the way for politicians to draw up a bill offering a compromise, which could be pushed through in the next session of Parliament.
Scottish MSPs voted to outlaw the practice of hunting with dogs earlier this month. Now the hunting could be legislation to a liscening system! as said by John Jackson the chairman of the CA!!!
Now if the votes disagree with hunting with dogs there may be a ban on Hunting with dogs as soon as the Autumn of 2003!
Now I only can but wonder wether angling will but next a rep from the NFA seems to think not as seen on Tight Lines last week however Keith Auther seems to disagree and thinks that he is absoulutly certain that it will come under view next!! What do you think?
