Animal Welfare (Exports)

Proceeding contribution from Robin Walker (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 December 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Animal Welfare (Exports).

The hon. Gentleman is making a very good speech, and I would join in the many compliments to my hon. Friend the Member for South Thanet (Laura Sandys). The hon. Gentleman has spoken about the improving standards of transport and conditions on the vehicles—lorries and boats. My hon. Friend raised the crucial point about the ports. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that enforcement at the ports is vital if we are to improve animal welfare standards?
