Animal Welfare Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ben Bradshaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Animal Welfare Bill.
There will be an exemption from the requirement for a licence for those events, because there is no evidence of which I am aware that there are any welfare problems with them. We do not want inadvertently to prevent an important and legitimate economic activity about which no concerns have been raised by animal welfare organisations. The proposals on pet fairs will be subject to wide consultation in due course.
