Discussion on Wild Animals and Circuses (Wales) Bill



I wrote to several ministers regarding the Animal exhibit regulations in Wales and the only one who bothered to reply was Llyr Gruffydd.  Here is part of his reply, I can only thank him for being true to his word and bringing the matter up in the Senedd..

"Gruffydd, Llyr (Aelod Cynulliad | Assembly Member) Wed, Oct 9, 6:37 PM
Dear Rhian
Thank you for sharing your letter with me. I fully sympathise with your view and feel strongly that the government must take great care to not inadvertently capture activity such as yours in the proposed new regulations.It’s right that you have registered your concern as part of the consultation and we will all await the government’s response and its final regulations when they come before the Senedd in due course .........."

A HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF and now we'll wait for the amendments before we can consider it's over!
