Lead Shot Ammunition

Proceeding contribution from Charles Walker (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 December 2015. It occurred during Debate on Lead Shot Ammunition.

In advance of the debate I talked to a number of clay pigeon shooting grounds in and around my constituency, and their problem with steel shot is that it ricochets. If lead shot is banned, all those shooting grounds will be put out of business—not just in and around my constituency, but across all Members’ constituencies. Has the hon. Gentleman thought about how that could be tackled?
