27th Nov 2024
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will bring forward legislative proposals to ban the (a) buying and (b) selling of crossbows.

Following the call for evidence on strengthening controls on crossbows on public safety grounds, which was held between 14 February to 9 April this year, and tested ideas for different approaches to licensing and registration around the ownership and sale of crossbows and asked for evidence to understand the potential impacts, we have reviewed the responses and we are considering whether further controls on crossbows need to be introduced.

We will publish the Government’s response to the call for evidence shortly and this will set out the next steps on whether to introduce further new controls.
