Wildlife management is a devolved matter so this reply relates to England only.<\/p>
<\/p>
Defra does not offer incentives to help control fox numbers in England and currently has no plans to control the number of foxes.<\/p>
<\/p>
Defra's general policy is that individuals should be free to manage wildlife within the law. The fox is not a protected species so the decision to control them lies with the owner or occupier of the property where the problem occurs.<\/p>
<\/p>
Natural England, on Defra\u2019s behalf, has a team dedicated to providing wildlife management advice to the public, both through written material and directly by telephone.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4098", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr Thérèse Coffey"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Suffolk Coastal"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Dr Thérèse Coffey"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-09-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-09-19T10:27:34.88Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "13"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-09-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Foxes"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what incentives his Department gives to help control fox numbers in the UK.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4131", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jim Shannon"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Strangford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jim Shannon"} ], "uin" : "9999"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/759297", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/759297/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Veterinary Medicines Directorate has been working closely with the Game Farmers Association (GFA) to raise awareness and foster good stewardship of antibiotics in the sector. The GFA and other sector representatives are committed to bringing down antibiotic use, while ensuring bird health and welfare are preserved. A comprehensive voluntary exercise to measure the use of antibiotics throughout the game sector is being carried out, and antibiotic reduction targets will be announced by the end of 2017.<\/p>
