What Are We Doing?

campaigning for animal welfareThe League Against Cruel Sports in Northern Ireland actively campaigns on a number of issues including hare coursing and snaring.
 
 
  • The League influences Government legislation to include higher animal welfare standards. In recent years the League has achieved a hare coursing ban as part of the Wildlife and Natural Environment Bill and stronger provisions against dog fighting in the Welfare of Animals Bill.
  • We give submissions to NI Assembly consultations on animal welfare issues and give expert evidence at relevant Committees at Stormont on new proposed legislation.  Recent consultation submissions include:
  • We lobby all political parties on our key campaigns in Northern Ireland. You can read our latest Stormont Public Affairs Briefing March 2011.pdf
  • We sit on the Partnership for Action Against Wildlife Crime Northern Ireland (PAWNI).
  • We expose the cruelty of snaring through investigation. Read our most recent report Tightening the Noose.  
  • We take an active role in raising awareness and reducing wildlife crime.
