Defra is exploring the future of enriched cages as part of its action plan to improve animal welfare
The NFU has warned the government’s new action plan for animal welfare in England could exacerbate existing concerns that British food producers will be undercut by cheaper, lower-quality imports.
Defra today published an action plan it said would “further strengthen animal welfare standards and reinforce [the UK’s] position as a global champion of animal rights”.
The plan, launched to coincide with the introduction of a new animal sentience bill to Parliament tomorrow (13 May), would put animal welfare “at the very heart of government policy decision making”, Defra said.
