Vol. 580 No. 6

Fur Farming (Prohibition) Bill 2004: First Stage.

Mr. Boyle

I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to prohibit the keeping of animals solely or primarily for slaughter for the value of their fur.

An Ceann Comhairle

Is the Bill opposed?

Minister of State at the Department of the Taoiseach (Ms Hanafin)

No.

Question put and agreed to.

An Ceann Comhairle

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

Mr. Boyle

I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."

Question put and agreed to.
