Domestic Ivory Market

Proceeding contribution from Kerry McCarthy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 February 2017. It occurred during e-petition debate on Domestic Ivory Market.

Will the hon. Lady join me in trying to nail the argument that this is just about killing animals for the Chinese medicine trade? The police in this country have seized ivory that has been antiqued to make it look as if it is older—pre the 1947 deadline. This is not just about the Chinese market.
