Details

The Council addressed once again the sensitive and difficult issue of the protection of animals in transport. For this purpose it had the Presidency compromise put forward in March together with suggestions from the Commissioner, Mr Fischler. Concluding its discussions, the Council noted that several delegations could agree on certain basic principles that should underpin any future solution, such as the distinction to be made between species, specific requirements for the most delicate animals, adaptation of means of transport to the animals’ physiological needs, and transport by sea. There were still deep disagreements among delegations, especially over journey times, rest periods, watering and feeding intervals, and the continuation of journeys after rest periods. The Council agreed to continue the discussion at its next meeting, when it would try to reach a conclusion on the issue.

The Council again addressed the sensitive problem of the protection of animals during transport. For this purpose it had the Presidency compromise drawn up and examined at the February meeting as a basis for its discussion. During the discussion the Commission made some suggestions for technical improvements to the Presidency compromise, which the Council intends to examine. Winding up, the President appealed to all delegations to make an effort so that the Council could reach a Decision at a future meeting.

For this purpose it had the Presidency compromise put forward in March together with suggestions from the Commissioner, Mr Fischler. Concluding its discussions, the Council noted that several delegations could agree on certain basic principles that should underpin any future solution, such as the distinction to be made between species, specific requirements for the most delicate animals, adaptation of means of transport to the animals’ physiological needs, and transport by sea. There were still deep disagreements among delegations, especially over journey times, rest periods, watering and feeding intervals, and the continuation of journeys after rest periods. The Council agreed to continue the discussion at its next meeting, when it would try to reach a conclusion on the issue.
