Voorstel van wet van het lid Van Velzen tot wijziging van de Flora- en faunawet in verband met het verbod op de drukjacht
This is a private member's bill in the Dutch House of Representatives (Tweede Kamer), proposed by MP Van Velzen. It would amend the Netherlands' Flora and Fauna Act (Flora- en faunawet) to introduce a ban on 'drukjacht', a form of driven hunting in which beaters or dogs drive game toward waiting hunters. The proposal concerns how wildlife is managed and hunted, and the welfare of the animals involved. If adopted, the ban would apply to hunters who take part in driven hunts and to the organisers of such hunts. Hunting groups and landowners who currently use this method would be affected. The bill is based on the metadata only and does not reflect the full legislative text, so its exact scope and any exemptions are not confirmed here.
