Adjustments to the rules
The “bill” regarding the “legislative decree” was presented in the Council of Ministers last week amendments to law 157/92 and rules for the protection of wildlife and hunting. Of course, the proposals filed have nothing to do with the alarmed news reported by the usual anti-everythings, to which of course pages of newspapers have been dedicated in the meantime, of social appeals against everything and everyone, even without having any text in hand. A text that contains arrangements of the rules made necessary by the more than thirty years of the law, by the changed number of hunting enthusiasts, drastically reduced since 1992, by the need to actually put the issue of management into play, by virtue of an increase in wild or feral fauna that is very problematic, with even some questions of danger to public health. So no vague hypothesis about Rambo species that would be allowed to shoot on the beaches among the bathers, no increase in huntable species or exaggerated variations in times, in short, changes requested by the entire Parliament in recent years, with bipartisan agendas approved.
Interesting proposals
What do we think? From a first evaluation, there are certainly some proposals for answers to interesting questions, such as the dated option of hunting forms, which with the evident reduction in the number of hunters no longer has any reason to exist. Very important for our provincial reality, territorially distorted by the abuse of identifying the passes in Lombardy, with the consequent generalized closure of every form of hunting in the 475 points clumsily identified, the proposal for the reclassification of the passes, their identification, the application rules on the hunting management of those areas. Every possible change in this sense, both as a reclassification and as application rules, will always be better than the tragic situation today and the proposal formulated in the bill goes in the direction of an evaluation of the true interest of the migration routes, to the passes to be foreseen.
The amendment formula
English: It would be necessary to hypothesize, if anything, with respect to the proposal, regulatory application rules at least at regional level and not for each individual management unit of SPAs, both for homogeneity and for overall correctness. Surely the proposing legislator, relying on the bill, has considered considering all possible discussions on the text itself, to involve all stakeholders, often conflicting, in the definition of the changes. We would certainly have preferred the formula of the amendment introduced in the budget, as had been promised by Minister Lollobrigida, for the certainty of the changes and the implementation times. The adopted formula of the bill, if not supported in a significant way from the point of view of political will, we fear could prove extremely long in terms of timing, as well as risky in the final formulation. And in the meantime the ruling of the Council of State will arrive only on October 9, if anything, and if it is favorable to us (Source FEDERCACCIA BRESCIA – CACCIAPENSIERI).
