Dutch state secretary open to banning non-stunned slaughter

Original: silvio erkens

Dutch State Secretary Silvio Erkens says he is open to a ban on slaughtering animals without stunning, a practice currently permitted for religious reasons. His comments have sparked debate in the Netherlands over whether an end to unanesthetised slaughter is near, touching on animal welfare concerns and religious freedom, with reactions expected from Jewish and Muslim communities and farming groups.

Why now: The state secretary's openness to a ban on non-stunned slaughter is a new development in a long-running animal welfare and religious freedom debate.
