- Humane animal slaughter
Hi Jacqueline,
The legislation is the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act, passed 1n 1958. The act basicaly said that slaughtered animals should not suffer and that they must be unconscious when they are killed.
While some of the debate may be misguided, the debate itself is very important. Perhaps we are on the verge of finally dealing with this issue instead of looking the other way.
