HC Deb 01 June 1998 vol 313 c30W
Mr. Randall

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what plans he has to extend the current bird registration scheme operated under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 to include critically endangered species listed under CITES. [43354]

Angela Eagle

There are no plans to extend the bird registration scheme at present, although we are considering whether to undertake a wider review of the registration process to see if it can be made more cost effective.
