Hunting and Regulations. The Regions must notify the Ministry of the Environment every year of the hunting calendars and their possible changes at least 2 months before the Season of the Hunting.
The Prime Minister, on the proposal of the Minister of the Environment, may warn the region concerned to adjust, within 15 days, the Hunting Calendar adopted in violation of European provisions. If the calendar is not adjusted, the premier will order the cancellation. This is foreseen by an article of the 2015 draft of the European law, which the Public Policy agency has read, which should arrive on the table of the next Council of Ministers.
The draft also provides that sedentary and migratory wildlife killed must be noted on the hunting card immediately after the recovery of each individual animal. The time frame in which it will be possible to hunt the Fieldfare (Turdus pilaris), the Song Thrush (Turdus philomelos) and the Woodcock (Scolopax rusticola): so far the period is from the third Sunday of September to 31 January while the draft of the European law 2015 provides that the hunting period of these species ended on 20 January.
