"Animal welfare comes under the concept of sustainable development and is important for the protection of animals and public health, and in terms of ensuring productivity and competitiveness. I personally believe that the link between animal welfare and public health should be examined more closely. Good husbandry of farm animals and pets is a means of reducing the spread of diseases, epidemics, and antimicrobial and antibiotic resistance. Another important step is to ensure effective controls of animal welfare, including at the level of the EU, which would monitor whether the Member States are performing their own inspections. Such a measure would, however, require additional funding for the Food and Veterinary Office, which would monitor and penalise non-compliance with the rules. I consider positive aspects of the report to be its clarity, pragmatism, and the fact that it focuses on increasing competitiveness and the quality of products on the internal market and those being traded with third countries."@en1
