Consultation on the review of schedule 9 to the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and a ban on the sale of certain non-native species

This consultation closed on 31 January 2008

Defra and the Welsh Assembly are seeking your comments on proposals to review of schedule 9 to the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.  The schedule lists non-native species that are already established in the wild, but which continue to pose a conservation threat to native biodiversity and habitats, such that further releases should be regulated.  The consultation also includes proposals to ban the sale of certain non-native species.
