Animal Welfare Bill

My right hon. Friend, as always, makes an interesting point. Of course, an alternative for the word ““must””, which my hon. Friend suggests in his amendment, could be the word ““shall””. I accept the point that my hon. Friend is making, but there ought to be uniformity. It is silly to have one rule for one thing but a different rule for something else. Defendants would turn up in court—I am sorry to say, they may appear before me.
