Hunting in Veneto. The Veneto hunting card gets a makeover. From the next hunting season, the 3.0 optical reading season will come into force. This was announced by the regional councilor Sergio Berlato (FdI) who collaborated in the restyling of the booklet where hunters must indelibly record the days of hunting and the fallen leaders.
«A space dedicated to the hunting mobility»Explained Berlato, that is to say the norm that was approved on Wednesday evening in the Council after a marathon of almost thirty hours (it was within a Collegato of 60 articles).
BOOKLET. Berlato explains that in the coming days the council will give the green light to the new tool for hunters and to the new one as well hunting calendar «Which reserves further news», he announces without wishing to add anything else. "First you need the approval of the council to the measures that will be presented by the commissioner Giuseppe Pan with whom I actively collaborated - underlines Berlato - for everything related to hunting: from the law on stalking to mobility, up to the definition of the new card".
On this Berlato specifies that it is a model "less cumbersome in the compilation than the previous one that could mislead even the youngest hunters". Therefore, immediacy and simplicity are the characteristics of the new hunters' book.
«It is optically readable so it will be possible, with a special tool, to read all the data concerning the hunters in a single moment and also record their mobility. In this way we will be able to verify how this option will be chosen by just 10 percent of hunters: in Veneto there are a total of 40 but "nomadism" has been forbidden to those registered in the Alps area and therefore drops to 30. - Berlato recounts -. So in the end it will be just 3 hunters throughout the region ».
Berlato thus aims to dismantle the main concern of some minority councilors and environmental, hunting and category associations who fear large influxes of hunters concentrated in certain hunting areas as a consequence of the law.
PRESSING. The measure was approved by splitting the ranks of the opposition and leaving many perplexities. Beginning with Andrea Zanoni (Pd) who announces: "The appeals against the law were ignored and the principles of wildlife protection contained in the state and European regulations were trampled on in a single shot".
It then announces reports to the European Commission and the Government to ask for an appeal to the Constitutional Court. Councilor Pan, on the other hand, is satisfied: "The Region could not ignore the expectations of an important part of the hunting world increasingly harassed by a community and national system that has effectively blocked the supply of calls coming from capture and put a form in crisis of traditional hunting that Veneto wants to defend ».
Coldiretti Veneto, in a note, yesterday pressed on Pan, reminding him of the commitments made verbally in the courtroom in announcing a Council regulation on hunting mobility. Provision which is given as possible in the approved text. "This is a responsibility that the regional government cannot shirk now - argues Coldiretti -: these declarations refer to thousands of agricultural entrepreneurs who respect good agronomic practices".
