Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Lords Chamber on 29 March 201829/03/2018

That the draft Regulations laid before the House on 8 and 23 February be approved. Considered in Grand Committee on 27 March.

Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

Again, I may look slightly sideways. The whole purpose of these regulations is so that at all times that the slaughterhouse is in operation—I stress “at all times”—whether at the arrival or at the end, the CCTV has to be on. If no animals are present or...

Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

I understand that. It is why CCTV will cover all areas, and that will provide the extra scrutiny. The FSA and the official veterinarian will be able to enhance animal welfare and, if necessary, identify people in slaughterhouses who are not behaving prop...

Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

I understand the essence of what the noble Lord is saying. The FSA feels that 90 days is sufficient for its enforcement purposes. However, because I believe in zero tolerance in these issues, I contend that with all the CCTV provision, I expect that the...

Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

My Lords, this has been a really worthwhile debate. I have learned a great deal about the intricacies of this matter from some of the experiences of noble Lords, but I repeat that we are absolutely clear that these regulations require all slaughterhouse...

Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

My Lords, I would like the opportunity of finishing these remarks. I am afraid that I am not acquainted with the practice of not permitting a Minister to introduce regulations. I will be more than pleased to receive comments when I have unfolded the argu...

Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

I will of course address that. I am grateful to my noble friend. FAWC also identified the significant benefits of CCTV systems to slaughterhouse operators, from in-house review of their operations and effective staff training to providing evidence of...

Mandatory Use of Closed Circuit Television in Slaughterhouses (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

My Lords, I am very pleased to introduce these important regulations on the mandatory use of closed circuit television in slaughterhouses in England. These regulations meet the Government’s manifesto commitment to make CCTV recording in slaughterhouses m...

Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

I think my noble friend answered that. If someone is in the business the number is irrelevant, so that is caught.

Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

My Lords, I might look sideways slightly as I say this, but the precise distinction is if the owner is in the business. In other words, the point is that if you have three or more litters you must have a licence, but if you are in the business you would...

Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

My Lords, this has been a very important discussion, and I am most grateful to the noble Baroness, Lady Jones of Whitchurch, for recording what I would call some praise, but some chastisement as well. Her genuine praise was for the officials who have bee...

Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

My Lords, I am delighted to bring forward this important set of regulations which introduce a new system of local authority licensing of activities involving animals in England. The regulations form part of an important package of reforms that the Gover...

Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018

Grand Committee on 27 March 201827/03/2018

That the Grand Committee do consider the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018.

Brexit: Fisheries Management

Lords Chamber on 20 March 201820/03/2018

My Lords, as I have said, there is already agreement in terms of the implementation period. Both sides have agreed that they will act in good faith during the implementation period and, clearly, if there was a breach—I repeat, if there was a breach—of go...

Brexit: Fisheries Management

Lords Chamber on 20 March 201820/03/2018

My Lords, I was very clear about the UK’s “share” of the quota. Obviously that goes back to the issue of sustainability. As the noble and learned Lord will know, at the Council there is a discussion about catch sizes on the basis of proper consideration...

Brexit: Fisheries Management

Lords Chamber on 20 March 201820/03/2018

My Lords, clearly Her Majesty’s Government are seeking a deal and an arrangement. As is plainly obvious, at the end of the day this will involve a huge amount of work and we will all need to see how that goes. Our intentions are in good faith. We want th...

Brexit: Fisheries Management

Lords Chamber on 20 March 201820/03/2018

My Lords, this is a complicated matter. It obviously involves considerable negotiation and my right honourable friend the Secretary of State and the Fisheries Minister will be or have been visiting the Faroe Islands, Norway and other countries—because, a...

Brexit: Fisheries Management

Lords Chamber on 20 March 201820/03/2018

My Lords, my noble friend is right about the arrangements for the deal, but clearly the negotiations will take time. As my noble friend has said, it is important that the UK share of the quotas will not change and that we are continuing on that basis. It...

Brexit: Fisheries Management

Lords Chamber on 20 March 201820/03/2018

My Lords, it is in the national interest that we have a vibrant fishing industry and we support fishermen in all parts of the United Kingdom. I heard Bertie Armstrong on the radio this morning and the accusation about the implementation period and the ye...
