Een integraal kader voor regels over gehouden dieren en daaraan gerelateerde onderwerpen (Wet dieren)

Stage otherUpdated 6d ago

This Dutch national bill, known as the Wet dieren (Animals Act), would bring together in one framework the rules on kept animals and related matters. It aims to consolidate animal welfare, health and keeping rules that are currently spread across several laws and regulations. The bill is before the Tweede Kamer, the lower house of the Dutch parliament. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. The law would mainly affect animal keepers, owners, breeders, pet traders, farmers, and the authorities that enforce animal welfare rules. Its exact obligations and changes are set out in the full bill and are not described in the metadata.
