Is now the time to ban fox hunting in Northern Ireland?

There have been calls for any future Northern Ireland Assembly to ban hunting with dogs as a matter of priority.
Boxing Day and New Year's Day are the biggest events in the hunting calendar across the UK.
Hunting wild animals with dogs was made illegal in England and Wales in 2004.
In Northern Ireland, however, the controversial practice is legal.
Should it be banned here?
Vinny spoke to Daniel Barkley from the League Against Cruel Sports and Polly Portwin, Head of Hunting at the Countryside Alliance.
