Please enforce the Welfare of Animals at time of killing (Scotland).
The Issue
The premises and suppliers in Glasgow are selling meat from animals slaughtered in UK abattoirs without the use of stunning.
The legal derogation which allows this type of slaughter only applies if the meat is restricted to the consumption of Muslims/ Jews.
As these products are in the general food chain this means that they have been sourced via illegal slaughter.
EU food safety legislation states that
"Food businesses must be able to identify the businesses from whom
they have obtained food, ingredients or food-producing animals and the businesses they have supplied with products, and produce this
information on demand.". I trust that you will utilise this legislation in order to trace source and method of slaughter and ensure that these products are being suitably distributed.
The world will be there until the end of the month for the Commonwealth Games. Since most people are against non-stun slaughter, it would be a travisty for you to not enforce the laws now and after the games.
Thank-You, for taking action on this important matter
