Mr. Phillip Oppenheim

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many successful convictions there have been during 1986 against smugglers of rare and endangered birds.

There have been two prosecutions (both successful) so far this year under the restrictions on the importation or exportation of endangered birds. A further prosecution is pending.
