The key word i guess is "IF".

..... monitoring by HFA inspectors is still waaaaaaay too infrequent. At most HFA inspect certified outlets 2-3 times per year. HMC inspects outlets approx 16 times per month.

AAWW,

inshallah getting there slowly ...

www.meatinfo.co.uk/news/fullstory.php/aid/16614/Halal_Aut...

"A conference is set to be held to establish a consensus within the halal community when it comes to the ritual slaughter of poultry.

The event, which will be hosted by the Halal Authority Board (HAB) on 22 February in Nuneaton, will include a range of halal certification organisations, including the Halal Food Authority, the Halal Monitoring Committee, along with muslim scholars.

The aim is to agree and declare a statement which states:

� Machine slaughter of poultry is Haram (forbidden) and is not permissible for the Muslim community in the UK.
� Only hand slaughter of poultry by Muslim slaughtermen is acceptable and will be considered as Halal.

A spokesman for the HAB said: "This agreed statement represents a significant step forward in the cooperation and agreement amongst UK halal certification bodies and establishes a consensus to declare that all poultry that is machine slaughtered is not halal for Muslims."

Denmark accused of anti-Semitism as it bans religious slaughter of animals for kosher and halal meat
20:27 18 Feb 2014

The government in Denmark has been accused of anti-Semitism after passing a law banning the religious slaughter of animals for halal and kosher meat.

After years of campaigning in the Scandinavian country, the ban came in to law yesterday.

The Danish government has passed a law banning the religious slaughter of animals for halal and kosher meat
The change has been described as 'anti-Semitic and 'a clear interference in religious freedom' by a group petitioning against the change.

Under European regulations, animals are required to be stunned before slaughter unless an exemption can be found on religious grounds.

And animals must be conscious when killed for the resultant meat to be kosher under Jewish law and halal under Islamic law.

But, following criticism, the country's Minister for Food, Dan Jorgensen, told Denmark's TV2 that 'animal rights come before religion'.

Campaign group Danish Halal has collected more than 13,000 signatures opposing the law change and plans to present them to Mr Jorgensen this week.

The group said: 'The new order is a clear interference in religious freedom and limits the Muslims and the Jews' right to practise their religion in Denmark.

'It is a procedure that is done under the guise of animal welfare, despite the fact that many scientific studies show that the animal suffers less when properly performed ritual slaughter than when it gets a blow to the head with a nail gun.'

The law change has also drawn criticism because it has been implemented in the same country that a giraffe was brutally slaughtered last week in front of an audience.

Marius, a perfectly healthy animal, was shot, dissected in front of a crowd which included children, and fed to lions last week at Copenhagen Zoo.

The law change comes shortly after Marius (the smaller giraffe) was slaughtered at Copenhagen Zoo
Despite more than 20,000 people signing an online petition to save two-year-old Marius, staff at Copenhagen Zoo went ahead and shot the animal with a bolt pistol.

Young children stood at arm's length as his carcass was skinned and dissected before the meat was thrown to the lions.

The Danish zoo said the drastic move was needed to combat inbreeding and insisted the display was educational.
