Animal welfare and the conditions in which they are treated, fed and transported deserve the fullest focus of EU policy. There is a direct link between animal health and human health, and it is therefore imperative that the former receive full health and welfare care so that this can be reflected in the healthiness of every European’s food. It is essential that, at the EU-policy level, agriculture and commerce be firmly linked so that the same level of animal health care can be required for animals from countries from which we import the meat we eat in the EU.
