The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when he plans to bring forward legislative proposals to end trail hunting.

Answered by Mary Creagh

This is a devolved matter with regard to Scotland and NI; hunting with dogs is a reserved matter with respect to Wales and therefore, the information provided relates to England and Wales.

The Government is committed to enacting a ban on Trail Hunting, and work to determine the best approach for doing so is ongoing. Further announcements will be made in due course.
