John, any additional comments?

Brilliant. Thank you. We've touched on England and the licensing scheme there, but, of course, there are other countries that have banned the use of glue traps—for example, Ireland and New Zealand. Is there anything that we can learn from their experiences?

Thank you for that, Ian. John, did you want to add anything on that before I move to my next question?

Perhaps you might not be able to answer this now, but, of course, if you’re able to send something after the session, it would be appreciated. But do you have an idea of how many pest control companies are operating outside of the trade associations, so they…

Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 8
Thank you for that. I think that does provide some clarity, but, of course, there’s still that issue that, if they’re not associated with a trade organisation, it is voluntary.

Diolch, Gadeirydd. I’m not sure if you’re looking at my notes—I was going to be asking about that definition. A lot of the things that I was going to cover have already been covered in previous answers, but there were some elements that I just wanted to come…

Yn ôl i chi, Gadeirydd.

Great. Thank you.

Great. Simon, yes.

Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
David, do you want to pick up on that, then?
9 Tachwedd 2022 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
Okay. Finally, Chair, I'd be interested in your views on the list of purposes for which support can be provided within the Bill. Shall I start with Collin and then head over to David to finish?
9 Tachwedd 2022 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
Thank you. In terms of the four sustainable land management objectives underpinning the Bill, in your view, are they appropriate? Would you, for example, want to see an additional objective?
9 Tachwedd 2022 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
That's interesting.

Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
Great. Thank you. If I can move on to animal health and welfare considerations in the wider Bill. My next three questions are for RSPCA Cymru and the BVA. Of course, if anyone has anything they wish to add, please indicate. If I can kick off by asking how…

Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
Yes, of course.
9 Tachwedd 2022 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
Right. Any additional comments?

So, essentially, it would just be the fencing—

Just to be clear on that last question, it wasn't about unintended consequences, it was more around are there alternative humane methods that could be used.
9 Tachwedd 2022 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
Thank you. I find it somewhat paradoxical in some ways, asking around less humane methods being used, as glue traps and snares themselves are not humane. But thinking about alternatives here, I was wondering if there were any recommendations around what sort…

Bil Amaethyddiaeth (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 7
Anything additional to add there, Collin?

Any views from you, David?
