La Hunting Federation commented on the hunting bill that it concerns Piedmont, noting a series of unconstitutionality. The hope of the hunting association is that the text will be modified, col Government which should supervise the work of the Regional Council on a matter that is the legislative competence of the State. The exclusion of hunting for 15 species (wigeon, gadwall, shoveler, pintail, garganey, coot, water rail, whisk, lapwing, fighter, pochard, lark, blackbird, ptarmigan, variable hare) is not convincing.
The arrangement is in contrast to the relevant state legislation and it is illegitimate as a "provision law". The authorization that the owner or tenant of the land can request from the Province is in contrast with thearticle 842 of the Civil Code, given that the matter has been left to the exclusive competence of the State. The adhesion of hunters to no more than two Territorial Areas of Hunting o Alpine areas in the same hunting season it is in contrast with article 14 of Law 157/1992 and the freedom of hunting.
Much more articulated is the unconstitutional profile of the first paragraph of Article 13, according to which the Piedmont Region adopts the hunting calendar to determine the huntable species and the hunting periods, in addition to the daily and seasonal game bag. The same goes for the ban on the use of live calls, in contrast with the national hunting law.
