Roger Caton was a Wildlife Inspector for DEFRA.
However, his role was drastically reduced - I believe that DEFRA, whilst not dispensing with his services, reduced his involvement to only one or two cases per year.
His tendency to produce his DEFRA accreditation whilst attending an RSPCA raid as paid RSPCA Witness is of questionable legality. I believe that his use of DEFRA status whilst being oaid by the RSPCA is, in fact, illegal!
Of interest, several years ago, at The Wildlife Crime officers 'convention' held at Edinburgh, Caton attended under a DEFRA 'ticket' but spent the entire time with the RSPCA SOU contingent!
Caton's 'expertise' as an RSPCA Expert Witness is very questionable - since he has only kept, it is thought, 12 species of native birds!

If you were to actually able to spell very simple words correctly, perhaps you would be taken more seriously. Defra have responded with an adequate reply, they have better things to do than try and decipher your poorly written requests.
