Partridges and Pheasants: Gun Sports
Asked by: Adrian Ramsay (Green Party - Waveney Valley) Tuesday 13th January 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, in light of the presence of Avian Influenza, whether she is going to permit the release of pheasants and partridges into the countryside for recreational shooting in 2026. Answered by Angela Eagle - Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) This will principally depend on the level of risk from Avian Influenza to commercial poultry flocks and to our internationally important bird populations at Special Protection Areas. It is not possible to say at this point in time what the level of disease risk will be during the 2026 release season and therefore what level of release will be permitted. |

Inheritance Tax: Waveney Valley
Asked by: Adrian Ramsay (Green Party - Waveney Valley) Monday 12th January 2026 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will make an estimate of the number of farms in Waveney Valley constituency that will no longer be impacted by Agricultural Property Relief due to the changes to IHT announced in December 2025. Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) The Government announced on 23 December 2025 that the allowance for 100% rate of relief will be increased from £1 million to £2.5 million when it is introduced on 6 April 2026. This means a couple will now be able to pass on up to £5 million of agricultural or business assets tax-free between them, on top of the existing allowances such as the nil-rate band.
Information from claims is not recorded to enable regional breakdowns of the number of estates expected to be affected. Compared to Budget 2025, the expected number of estates across the UK claiming agricultural property relief, including those also claiming business property relief, affected by the reforms in 2026-27 halves from 375 to 185. Around 85% of estates claiming agricultural property relief in 2026-27, including those that also claim for business property relief, are forecast to pay no more inheritance tax on their estates under these changes. |

Game: Animal Breeding
Asked by: Adrian Ramsay (Green Party - Waveney Valley) Wednesday 14th January 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, how many game farms are operational in England and Wales; and how many of them are registered with the Poultry Register. Answered by Angela Eagle - Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) There is no official definition of a game farm in the UK, and the England and Wales Kept Bird Register only details keepers of bird species that might be released for shooting. The following data was extracted from the Animal and Plant Health Agency’s database:
* Indicates the presence of at least one flock of pheasants, partridges or ducks reared for shooting were kept. It will also include ornamental species and keepers that buy in and rear birds.
** Flocks where no usual stock number has also been recorded. |

Partridges and Pheasants: Gun Sports
Asked by: Adrian Ramsay (Green Party - Waveney Valley) Wednesday 14th January 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what information her Department holds on the number of a) pheasants and b) partridges that were released for recreational shooting in (i) 2023, (ii) 2024 and (iii) 2025. Answered by Angela Eagle - Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) The release of pheasant and red legged partridge on or within 500 metres of a European site must be authorised under licence. It is a requirement of such licences to report releases made under their authorisation. Our records show that the following numbers of birds were reported released during the relevant years.
Releases undertaken beyond 500 metres of a European site, do not need to be reported and my Department therefore does not hold the information requested.
The number of birds being released has been increasing, and it is currently estimated that between 39 and 57 million pheasants and 8.1 and 13 million partridges are released in the UK, with 85% of these in England. It is thought that releases on or within 500 metres of a European site in England, represent less than 1% of total release activity in the UK.
