ladyjack Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) Does anyone know how to access section 4(3)to4(6) of the wildlife and countryside 1981 act, as I have had an email from NE stating that I can carry on shooting as long as it falls into these categories Edited May 7, 2019 by ladyjack Spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rheth Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 shooting bodies are telling us not to rely on section 4 and better not to take the risk of prosecution as theres a high chance you will lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyjack Posted May 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 You can only apply on your computer not on tablets or phones, if you try on these it says read only at top left of page, I sent my application off and got a reply saying we have received your application, I then asked if I could carry on shooting because of the damage the birds are causing, as told to look up section 4(3)to4(6) of the 1981 act Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
