TAX TREATMENT OF PIGEON RACING

Tabled by Lord Beith (Liberal Democrat) 41 signatures

The motion

That this House considers that pigeon racing, which has been recognised as a sport for over a century and is enjoyed by tens of thousands of people, should be treated in the same way as other sports are by public bodies, such as HM Revenue and Customs, and should benefit from the tax reliefs available to sporting bodies.
