". We support the rejection of the Commission proposal because, as the rapporteur says, it is not based on the most recent scientific developments and does not provide for the use of humane technical resources. The Commission’s proposal is a follow-up to the International Agreement on Humane Trapping concluded between the EU, the USA, Canada and Russia. This agreement was twice rejected by Parliament, however, and only entered into force because the Council and the Commission argued that they did not want to create trouble with the USA and Canada. The issue before us is the actual concept of ‘humane’. The Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety argues that traps cannot be deemed ‘humane’ if animals undergo a death struggle of 5 minutes or more, when alternatives are available. In any event, it is appalling that the Commission accepted the International Agreement without prior consultation with Parliament."@en1
