Alfio Guarnieri, president of the regional section of Lazio ofNational Free Hunting Association, commented on the recent approval of the Finance Law, number 9 of last August 14th. In the text there are some changes to the Regional Law 17 of 1995 ("Regulations for the protection of wildlife and the planned management of the hunting exercise"). In particular, the innovations concern thedog training from the third Sunday of August and the reduction of the members of the management committees of the Territorial Hunting Areas.
According to Guarnieri, there are too many information pitfalls: for example, the new training date refers to the 2018-2019 hunting season, not the one that is about to begin. This means that hunters must be very careful if they do not want to be fined: dog training will begin Sunday August 26 and will end on September 14, without forgetting the exclusion of September 2 and 10.
The association will act as a civil party against those who are making misinformation, practically pushing the hunters to commit a crime. The press release from the regional president was necessary to make it understood once and for all the difference between hunting calendar and regional law: next 29 August the Lazio councilor for hunting, Charles Hausmann, will meet hunting and agricultural associations just to talk about the calendar, pre-opening and wild boar hunting.
