PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
CLOSE SEASON FOR HARE SHOOTING (12 December 2011)

That this House deplores the shooting of hares throughout their breeding season as cruel and unnecessary; notes that in Scotland the brown hare and mountain hare now have close seasons to protect nursing mothers and their dependent young; and calls on the Government to confer similar protection upon these icons of the British countryside.
