Animal Welfare Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ben Bradshaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Animal Welfare Bill.
With leave of the House, Mr. Deputy Speaker, I can give the hon. Gentleman the assurance that he seeks and also tell him that he is right in his implication that the motivation for these amendments was indeed the case that arose in the summer, which many people found extremely distressing. They were also frustrated that the Government could take no action, and we want to ensure that we can take action even if someone could have been disqualified under the old legislation and not just under the new provisions. Lords amendment agreed to. Lords amendments Nos. 35 to 55 agreed to.
