POLITICAL UPDATE
The date has now been confirmed for a Westminster Hall debate on banning driven grouse shooting. On the 25th January, the Petitions Committee will discuss Wild Justice’s petition entitled “Ban Driven Grouse Shooting Wilful blindness is no longer an option”, this will be the first time since 2016 that MPs will formally debate the topic. BASC’s political team have therefore been urging MPs to join the debate and see off this damaging proposal, which decimate the rural economy, harm wildlife conservation and be detrimental to our heather moorland.
