asked the Minister for Justice if he is aware that the snaring and killing of hares has increased to an alarming extent in County Dublin; and if he is prepared to put the Hares Protection Order of the Game Preservation Act into force in this county.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Killing of Hares.
