Motion Text

That this House congratulates the Prime Minister and wholeheartedly welcomes his statement that hunting will be banned as soon as possible; recognises that the Government has listened to the 411 honourable Members and the overwhelming majority of the public who wish to see hunting banned before the millennium; recognises that hunting is cruel and barbaric and has no place in a modern Britain; pledges to support future Government legislation that will provide an outright national ban on deer, mink, hare and fox hunting; and calls for proposed legislation to be included in the forthcoming Queen's Speech.
