In July 1999 the Home Affairs Committee (HAC) of the House of Commons announced its intention to hold an inquiry into controls on firearms. The committee published its report ‘Controls over firearms’ and included a number of recommendations. The government has considered the committee’s recommendations carefully and this paper sets out the government’s response.
