lpv:translated text	"The EU’s pet population is estimated at over 100 million, many of which are victims of mistreatment and cruelty in many Member States. There is no legislation protecting these animals in the EU. Furthermore, the European Convention for the Protection of Pet Animals has not yet been signed by many Member States. As such, and given the large number of petitions mainly submitted in southern and eastern Europe, the authors of this proposal call on the European Union and the Member States to ratify the aforementioned convention and to transpose its provisions into national legal systems. It also calls on the Commission to put forward a legal framework to protect these animals, including rules for identifying and registering animals, stray animal-management strategies, measures to promote responsible ownership, prohibition of unlicensed kennels and shelters, prohibition of the killing of stray animals without medical indication, information and educational programmes in schools, and severe sanctions to be imposed on any Member State which fails to comply with the rules. I believe these measures will contribute to protecting European animals and citizens, so I am voting for this resolution."@en1
