Ban the keeping of any primate by an individual

Additional Information

The keeping of primates at home by individuals is wrong, an animal with such a close relationship with man cannot be kept from its social group and it's interactions.
They can become mentally unstable, as no home can offer either space required nor the social bonding required to keep these animals stimulated.
They are wholly unsuitable as a pet, and unscrupulous pet traders try to promote them as child friendly, they are not and should not be transported from their native country or bred in this country as a source of pets.
