Ban all hunting on National Trust land indefinitely.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

To permanently end so-called "trail hunt" licences being handed out by the National Trust.

We are calling for these suspensions to be made permanent and for hunting to be banned on all National Trust land indefinitely + in the rest of the UK. Until 2020 the National Trust has allowed ‘trail hunts’ to use their land. These licences are currently suspended pending the outcome of the police investigation they need to be banned before then

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

Decisions about whether to ban trail hunts on National Trust land are a matter for the National Trust, not the Government or House of Commons. As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.
