In the case of private individuals growing it, who refuse to remove it, a civil action may be taken against them by the local authority. That is if they are allowing it to be released into the wild. No! Yes! Please read the Act and the commentary again: Here is the Act: "Section 14(2) It is an offence for a person to plant or otherwise cause to grow in the wild any plant on Schedule 9 (Part 2)" I think the problem is that the plant part was tacked onto an animal act. Releasing into the wild has a clear meaning with animals and a not so clear meaning with plants. Can you give me the links to the whole act and it's various amendments. Do many people cultivate hog weed in Uk gardens? -- Martin |
