§ Mr. Tony Banksasked the Secretary of State for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what resources are made available by his Department for the construction of hedgehog ladders.
§ Mr. Donald Thompson[pursuant to his reply, 6 May 1987, c. 473]: The Agricultural Development and Advisory Service offers a wide range of advice to farmers on the protection of wildlife including, for example, the provision of escape routes for small animals when cattle grids are being constructed. Escape routes can normally be provided at little or no extra cost to the farmer.
