Glue traps

Section 5—Authorisation for use, supply or possession of glue trap

18.This section enables the Scottish Ministers to make regulations to establish a scheme to authorise the use, supply or possession of glue traps by specified persons in specified circumstances. A person can be authorised under the scheme only if it is necessary or expedient to do so for the purpose of protecting public health and no other method of rodent control is practicable.

19.The regulations may create offences with a maximum penalty of, on summary conviction, imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale (or both).

20.Before making regulations, the Scottish Ministers must consult local authorities and such other persons as they consider likely to be interested in, or affected, by the authorisation of the use, supply or possession of glue traps.
