Alan Campbell MP for Tynemouth Community Commitment Common Sense
Tynemouth MP has welcomed the news that the Government has announced a proposal for a full ban on ivory trade in the UK.
Alan said “I know that a lot of local people feel strongly about this issue and I am pleased that the government have listened. A consultation is currently taking place on possible exemptions and comments are invited from all interested parties. The deadline for submissions is 29th December. I would urge anyone with a view to have their say.”
However, if you would prefer not to complete the questionnaire, letters or emails will also be taken into account. Please address your email to ivoryconsultation@defra.gsi.gov.uk
