What it asks
Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to introduce legislation to achieve:
• establish a statutory closed season for the shooting of wild goats; and
• require that large-scale or high-impact culling operations be subject to an appropriate system of licensing or authorisation.
This is in order to support animal welfare, sustainable population management, accountability in wildlife management, resolve legislative inconsistency, and bring Scotland in line with internationally recognised standards.
