	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2016 answer text <p>Limiting firework displays to regulated organised displays only is not supported, on public safety grounds, by the current available evidence. Official statistics, from NHS Digital, demonstrate that there is a downwards trend in hospital admissions in England, arising from the discharge of fireworks, with 114 such admissions in 2014/15. The Government will continue to focus on reducing accidents and nuisance by encouraging industry, retailers and others to promote responsible use through guidance and public education.</p><p> </p><p>The Government accepts that fireworks can have a detrimental effect on some animals. However, we consider that if users follow guidance on the correct and sensible use of fireworks, and owners of animals take appropriate precautions, these can help to avoid or reduce any detrimental effects.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 09/09/2016 07:17:51 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James previous answer version 9645 answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
