Conservation of Wild Birds Regulations, 2006 (L.N. 79 of 2006).

These Regulations establish special conservation measures aimed at preserving the wild bird species listed in Schedule I, as well as their habitats. Such measures take into special account species in danger of extinction, species vulnerable to specific changes in their habitat, species considered rare because of small populations or restricted local distribution and species requiring particular attention for reasons of the specific nature of their habitat. Hunting and taking eggs of the endangered species of wild birds is prohibited. As regards other wild bird species, particular hunting restrictions and provisions on banned methods are laid down. Regulation 10 sets up the Ornis Committee. Part II of the Regulations sets out the penalties to be applied in case of infringement.
