Vorschlag für eine Verordnung des Rates über den Schutz von Tieren zum Zeitpunkt der Tötung

This proposal aims to establish common EU standards for the protection of animals at the time of killing. It seeks to ensure that animals are treated humanely and that stunning is applied effectively to prevent unnecessary suffering during slaughter. This will primarily affect livestock farmers, slaughterhouse operators, and veterinary inspectors across the EU, requiring them to adhere to stricter, harmonized welfare requirements.
