Non-penetrative captive bolt (NPCB) The Humane Slaughter Association (HSA) is in favour of using non-penetrative captive-bolt devices for dispatching lambs, kids, and piglets. We agree with the inclusion in EC 1099/2009, bringing it in line with Englands legislation. This method is humane when applied correctly.

What they argued
The Humane Slaughter Association (HSA) supports proportionate, risk-based approaches to official controls. However, we are concerned the proposed changes could reduce the effectiveness of animal welfare oversight unless appropriate safeguards are clearly defined.
