So what next? 

The Spring Traps Approval (England) Order 2018 was made on 9 November and will come into force on 1 January 2019.  It has been published on legislation.gov.uk (see www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2018/1190/contents/made).

Similar orders are due to be made by the Devolved Administrations, (Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland) between now and 31 March 2019 when the Humane Trapping Standards Regulations 2019 are due to come into force (with a further year’s delay for stoat).

The draft Humane Trapping Standards Regulations 2019 have also been published on legislation.gov.uk (see http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukdsi/2019/9780111174722/contents).  These have been laid and are currently the subject of Parliamentary Committee scrutiny.  If they are cleared for debate, they will be debated in the Commons and the Lords before the SI is finally made early next year.

Please feel free to drop us a message setting out the anticipated number of traps you will require once the trap is approved and available for sale, together with your contact details.
