FIREWORK DISPLAYS

Motion Text

That this House notes the significant recent increase in private firework displays throughout the calendar year; further notes with concern the great distress to domestic animals and livestock and the nuisance to residents which they can cause; and urges the Government to consider introducing legislation aimed at reducing the noise nuisance of firework displays and to launch a national campaign to encourage people to buy fireworks only for use during traditional celebrations such as 5th November and Diwali.
