Approved amendments on the hunt to the Simplification Law of the Lombardy Region, intervened on the merits the proponent and deputy leader of the Lega al Pirellone, Floriano Massardi. “I express great satisfaction - asserts Massardi - for the positive vote on all the hunting amendments presented by me to the Lombardy Region Simplification Law. These changes will make life really easier for our hunters and show that the Region cares about hunting. The first approved amendment provides that the hunting card returns to be sent directly to the home, as it was until 2015, avoiding bureaucratic formalities and unnecessary delays. Also on the card, another important novelty, is represented by the signature of the garments, which can take place after recovery, while before it had to be done immediately. This amendment does justice to our hunters who, due to the lack of clarity of the rule, had to suffer several unjustified penalties in 2018. Then there is the overcoming of 55 days for hunting, a limitation foreseen only in our Region, a change that will certainly please our retirees.
Another important novelty concerns the hunting qualification exam, which can be carried out at the age of 17 and no longer at the eighteenth; it is not intended to open the hunt for minors, but simply to prevent the new hunter who turns his birthday in the second semester from losing the hunting season. In this regard, another amendment provides that the hunting qualification exam can finally be carried out in any UTR of the Region, not only therefore in that of the Province of residence.
But there are not only changes from the bureaucratic point of view: hunting from fixed posting will also be allowed near rural buildings, avoiding what has happened up to now, that is, the revocation of postings in the vicinity of this type of structures. In addition, the recovery of injured game can take place up to a distance of 200 meters, against the current 100 meters. In this sense, another amendment changes the concept of measuring distances, which will finally take place following the morphology of the land and not as the crow flies, which had led to the revocation of numerous fixed postings, precisely due to the failure to respect the distance provided for by the Law.
Finally, fox hunting will be allowed, a species harmful to crops and humans on which it is necessary to intervene with containment measures, until January 31, or one month longer than the original forecast. These are rules that will make life easier for hunters - concludes Floriano Massardi - who carry out a traditional activity of an important type, as well as a fundamental ecological function, necessary for our ecosystem.
