“The Tar has absolutely not closed the hunt but has only suspended the hunt for partridge, while he asked for further reasons regarding the pheasant , hare". With this clarification, the councilor for hunting, Mauro Febbo, engaged in the forum on nutrition in Cernobbio, replies to the declarations of the regional councilor Walter Caporale on the pronouncement of the Abruzzo Tar, about the 2009-2010 hunting calendar, filed yesterday. Great celebrations for the Greens, the Italian Animalists and the "League for the abolition of hunting" for the suspension order of the Tar arrived yesterday.
Il The administrative court of Abruzzo has in fact accepted the appeal filed against the resolution of the regional council with which the hunting calendar 2009-2010.
The resolution was thus canceled and the effectiveness of the hunting calendar was suspended.
According to the magistrates Michele Perrelli, Paolo Passoni and Alberto Tramaglini "the complaint of lack of motivation of the contested resolution seems to be well founded", in the part in which the opinion "of the Higher Institute of Environmental Research" was not taken into sufficient consideration.
"Hurray," exclaimed the regional councilor of the Greens Walter Caporale at the news. «It is a great victory in Abruzzo. For the first time in Italian history, hunting is stopped in a region ».
Greens and animal rights activists are now demanding the resignation of councilor Febbo, the commissioner of the hunting office, the closure of the "useless" hunting sector of the four provinces and the region. "Now we need to ask those who made a mistake in compensating the company," Caporale insisted.
"Leaving aside the futile utterances of the regional councilor Caporale, from the analysis of the provision adopted by the judges of the TAR it is clear that not even the hunting schedules adopted by the Region that Caporale considered illegitimate were contested. - Febbo explained - now with a forthcoming resolution of the regional council it will be clarified but in the meantime i Abruzzo hunters they can rest assured because the hunting season will continue regularly, except for the actual suspension concerning only the species partridge, pending the reintegration of existing populations ". For the councilor for hunting "unfortunately there are those who persist, like the regional councilor Caporale, in seeking visibility in every way, in order to appear in the newspapers, even mystifying the reality of the facts". Then Febbo concluded by underlining that "Corporal and the environmentalists would do much better to deal with the real problems of the Abruzzo people, such as the financial disaster left by the Del Turco government, the international economic and employment crisis, health problems, the problems resulting from the earthquake , of the difficulties of the agricultural world and of fishermen ”.
