The results of the survey can be found here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/farm-animals-survey-of-slaughter-methods-2018" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/farm-animals-survey-of-slaughter-methods-2018</a>.</p><p>The particular features of permitted stunning methods are based assessments by the EU Food Safety Authority (EFSA) of the scientific evidence relating to welfare at slaughter. In terms of food safety, all permitted stunning and slaughter methods have to meet the same official controls and requirements on the spread of campylobacter.</p> answering member printed Lord Gardiner of Kimble question first answered 28/03/2019 16:07:14 answering member 4161 label Biography information for Lord Gardiner of Kimble
