Hunting in Sicily, the Tar of Palermo suspends the 2012-2013 Hunting Calendar but the hunt can continue from 5 September governed by the old 2011-2012 Calendar.
By precautionary decree of Monday 3 September 2012 the TAR of Sicily accepted the precautionary petition of the environmentalists aimed at the suspension of the decree approving the 2012 2013 Hunting Calendar in the parts where hunting is allowed in the absence of the hunting wildlife plan and strategic environmental assessment for hunting in Natura 2000 sites.
From what can be deduced from the text of the decree, if there is no subsequent provision of the Region of Sicily, until the date of the hearing on Tuesday 25 September, it must be considered that the hunt is governed by the previous Hunting Calendar in force for the last Hunting Season 2011- 2012, issued in compliance with the regulatory provisions - primary and secondary - applicable to it.
The Regional Councilor for Agricultural and Food Resources, Francesco Aiello, taking note of the TAR's decision to suspend the recent 2012-2013 Hunting Calendar issued by him, deemed it appropriate to specify that "For the 2012-2013 season, hunting continues without interruptions ".
In fact, the commissioner Aiello explained, “The decision respects the judgment of the Regional Administrative Court. For the next few weeks it will be possible to continue hunting according to the rules already established by the 2011-2012 hunting calendar and that substantially do not deviate from this year's rules. The joint discussion of the Tar, set for next September 25th, is expected of the suspended calendar ”.
