That this House recognises that much of the important detail of the Animal Welfare Act 2006 will follow in the form of regulations and codes of practice; notes that in 2006 the Government only laid before the House regulations relating to farm welfare and tail docking; is concerned that the implementation of regulations and codes of practice is proceeding at a slow pace; and calls upon the Government to bring forward the proposed draft regulations and codes of practice and ensure that Parliament will have the opportunity to scrutinise them prior to their commencement.
