This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Petition Label meat with information as to whether the animal was stunned at slaughter.
Consumers have a right to know if the meat they are purchasing has been stunned to render the animal insensitive before exsanguination.
Until this information is clearly displayed, consumers are not able to purchase in a manner which allows them to make choices based on animal welfare.
More details
There is a clearly recognised animal welfare issue in non-stun slaughter. Consumers should have the information which enables them to make a welfare based choice.
