lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of the report on the European Union Strategy for the Protection and Welfare of Animals 2012-2015. It is good that we have adopted such an important document, which creates a basis for the protection and improved welfare of animals. Now the issue of animal welfare should be included in other areas of EU policy, namely consumer policy, research programmes and the common agricultural policy. Unfortunately the agricultural budget after 2013 offers little scope. Rural area development programmes for 2014-2020 must include significant sums for animal welfare. Without sufficient financial support there will not be effective implementation. I call on the Commission to put forward proposals to limit the time for which breeding animals can be transported when being taken for slaughter to eight hours. Over a million EU citizens signed a petition on this subject. The welfare of domestic animals is also important. Despite the fact that estimates put the EU’s cat and dog population at around 100 million, there are no EU regulations concerning their welfare. Following the Council’s conclusions in 2010 concerning the welfare of cats and dogs and the adoption of today’s resolution, I would like to emphasise the importance of promoting the welfare of domestic animals by ensuring minimum standards for their treatment, protection, compulsory registration and electronic identification. In this context it is also vital that the EU and its Member States ratify the European Convention on the Protection of Pet Animals."@en1
