Great satisfaction was expressed by the councilor Alessandro Sala: "It is an important moment for hunters, I am very satisfied since there has been talk for many years of the need to reform Law 26/93, the associations and provinces had drawn up projects that have never been presented, I am sure that it takes courage to change something.

I presented PDL 48 in June because this is a necessity in the hunting world, I am aware of the criticality of the subject and I am happy that PDL 93 was presented by my fellow advisers. As coordinator of this working group, I express my commitment in the preliminary work that will see the hearings of hunting, agricultural, environmentalist associations and game production as crucial. This means that finally it will be possible to confront and with maturity come to the elaboration of the revision of the regional law. Today hunting also means cultural change and a close relationship with the agricultural world. The task we have taken on is to bring the text amending law 26/93 to the court in a short time ”.
