Political shenanigans over the bill to ban live export
Manage episode 328183843 series 2646482
Greyhound racing is facing a new scandal, following revelations made by Newshub that indicate potential neglect and mistreatment at a kennel belonging to one of the industry’s most prolific trainers.
The ban on live export faced a small bump in the road recently, but it looks like it will still become law in due course.
And the Government is proposing a ban on farrowing crates, following a successful court case back in 2020, bought by the New Zealand Animal Law Association and SAFE.
Make a submission on the new code of welfare for pigs and demand a ban on farrowing crates.
