	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/11/2016 answer text <p>The UK has made no formal assessment of the potential effect of a total ban on domestic ivory sales on the number of elephants poached for ivory. The UK’s proposed ban on trade in modern day, post-1947 ivory, announced by the Secretary of State on 21 September, is a significant step towards implementation of our Manifesto commitment to press for a total ban on ivory sales. It sends a global message of the need to combat the threat to elephants from poaching and puts pressure on other countries to act.</p> answering member constituency Suffolk Coastal answering member printed Dr Thérèse Coffey question first answered 08/11/2016 12:08:45 answering member 4098 label Biography information for Dr Thérèse Coffey
