Hunting in derogation: For the application of the exceptions to the hunting ban, the national law provides for the issuing of some guidelines proposed by the Ministries of Environment and Agriculture that the Regions must follow.
These guidelines have never been issued and the application of Article 9 of Directive 147/2009 for the derogation from the ban on hunting in the interest of public health and safety, in the interest of aviation safety, to prevent serious damage to crops, livestock, woods, fishing and waters, for the protection of flora and fauna - by the Regions - takes place without homogeneity of address. Perhaps it is also for this reason that our country often finds itself in litigation with the European Union precisely because of the incorrect application of the so-called “hunting in derogation? Very likely. And for this we ask ourselves what are the reasons why the Ministers of Environment and Agriculture have not yet issued these guidelines and if they do not consider it urgent to do so, especially after the numerous episodes of "illegal" hunting activities we witness every day, which compromise the welfare and protection of animal species.
