Almost 10,000 people visit BASC website to help challenge ban on shooting in Wales

BASC “delighted” that so many people have shown strength of feeling on the issue.

Personal, face-to-face conversation could have opened “channel of communication” with BASC members and people who shoot in Wales.

Lawyers acting on behalf of BASC, CA and NGO have now issued a letter before action.

Still “work to be done” and people need to continue getting the message across that “shooting must be protected”.

BASC council member Ian Coghill has written to the minister to challenge the “ethical” basis of her intervention.
