I would like to add my comments on the proposal to ban snares in Wales.

 

Firstly I was extremely pleased to hear that this proposal has been accepted. I have campaigned for a ban in England with no success so far but Wales's courageous and morally correct stance on this issue raised my spirits tremendously. As someone with family ties to Wales , it has made me feel much more likely to spend time in Wales due to this ban, that is how strongly I feel about snares.

 

I only hope England has the integrity to do the same.

 

Please do not bow to the minority who oppose this ban, theirs is a vested interest argument not shared by the vast majority of people.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Ros Berrington.
