Driven Grouse Shooting

Proceeding contribution from Nigel Adams (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 31 October 2016. It occurred during e-petition debate on Driven Grouse Shooting.

Those who seek to ban driven grouse shooting, such as Mr Avery, who my hon. Friend the Member for Broxbourne (Mr Walker) referred to earlier, argue that walked-up shooting could be a practical alternative. Does my hon. Friend agree that that argument simply flies in the face of basic economics, given the

obvious reduction in the bag and the amount of money that a day’s walked-up shooting would take compared with a driven day?
