	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/05/2019 answer text <p>Currently only two circuses still use wild animal acts in Great Britain. Given any breach of the ban proposed in the Wild Animals in Circuses (No.2) Bill would involve a circus performing or exhibiting a wild animal in public, we do not believe many, if any, circuses will seek to contravene the ban. Therefore our estimate is that any cost to Defra of enforcing the ban will be negligible.</p> answering member constituency Macclesfield answering member printed David Rutley question first answered 15/05/2019 13:56:53 answering member 4033 label Biography information for David Rutley
