The UK is a leader when it comes to the protection of animals, and we intend to go even further now that we have left the EU.</p><p> </p><p>The Government is appalled by the prospect of dogs and cats being consumed. However, it is already illegal to sell dog and cat meat for human consumption and we have seen no evidence that dog or cat meat is being sold or consumed in this country. The organisation behind the recent campaign to ban the consumption of dog and cat meat in this country acknowledged this point.</p><p> </p><p>We are confident that our current position sends a clear message that the slaughter and consumption of dogs and cats will never be acceptable. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office raises concerns about the welfare of animals with other governments at every suitable opportunity, and we are pleased to hear that authorities in China are proposing to ban the consumption of dog and cat meat.</p> answering member constituency Banbury answering member printed Victoria Prentis question first answered 08/09/2020 12:59:38 answering member 4401 label Biography information for Victoria Prentis
