The Animal Welfare Foundation calls on the European Commission to amend Article 1 Paragraph 2 of the Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 and expand its scope to horsemeat, as a first step, and to subsequently introduce country-of-origin labelling and EU animal welfare standards for imported horsemeat. Please find a detailed feedback here attached.

What they argued
The Animal Welfare Foundation urges the European Commission to include high animal welfare standards in the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), in particular the 3 R principle and a prohibition to take blood from pregnant animals/horses. Animal welfare standards are not even mentioned in the draft presented. This is unacceptable. The AWFs statement can be found attached.

Turns up on the same files
Organizations that also filed on at least two of the same consultations. A shared interest in the same dossiers — not evidence of coordination, and we do not suggest any.
