The judgment of the administrative judges
In the last few hours there has been a ruling from the Regional Administrative Court ofEmilia Romagna with which it is established that the hunt for the species of the Pochard "Aythya ferina" and the Tufted Duck "Aythya fuligula" will close on 20 January 2024" accepting the appeal proposed by the environmentalists.
Cancellation of the regional resolution
Wanting to be even more precise, the appeal in question was presented by the LAC (League for the Abolition of Hunting) against the Emilia Romagna Region. The association demanded the annulment of regional resolution number 812 of 22 May 2023 approving the Emilian hunting calendar for the 2023-2024 season.
Hearing on merit
We must also not forget that the LAC demanded the postponement of the hunt for other species, specifically partridges, foxes, pheasants and red partridges. The Region was also sentenced to reimburse the expenses in favor of the League, for a total of 2 thousand euros. For the discussion on the merits, the hearing has been set for 28 March 2024.
