Mr. Levitt

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what changes to the law he plans following the recent court case in which a walker injured by cattle successfully sued the fanner for damages. [44446]

The Government are not proposing to make any changes to legislation following this incident. Present law is adequate, both in terms of protecting members of the public and enabling farmers to operate effectively.
