Title: Malta Contact
Post by: Bobbie Ireland on 08-Mar-11, 08:24:38 AM
Janez Potočnik is European Commissioner for the Environment. Please contact him re your concerns on  Malta's illegal hunting at

http://ec.europa.eu/commission_2010-2014/potocnik/index_en.htm (http://ec.europa.eu/commission_2010-2014/potocnik/index_en.htm)

The advice is NOT to get confrontational, nor to threaten Malta's tourism. It is this very tourism which brings this issue to the fore and puts it in front of the international community.

Thanks for whatever you feel able to do! And do let me know if you receive any responses.

Bobbie
