In other words, I asked for details about foxhunting, the most unpopular, least acknowledged and investigated crime on the entire statute book.

I am already aware that the Hunting Act is not listed as a notifiable offence on the list of Home Office Offence codes.

I am thus also already aware that the exclusion of the Hunting Act as a listed law and foxhunting as a notifiable offence from the list of Home Office Offence codes was deliberate, in order to facilitate the use of exclusions by police forces on the grounds of cost in response to FOI requests.

Thank you for confirming that the Home Office have ensured, with police assistance, that the Hunting Act is being intentionally undermined by the very agencies whose job is to enforce it.
