Plant-based bubble bursts
OPINION: Talking about plant-based food: “Chicken-free chicken” start-up Sunfed has had its valuation slashed to zero by major investor Blackbird Ventures, and its products are no longer available in supermarkets.
It's jumping for joy following the announcement that the Animal Welfare Act 1999 is to be reviewed by the Government.
The parliamentary Regulations Review Committee has told the Government to conduct a prompt review of the process for developing secondary legislation under the act, and whether all secondary legislation, particularly codes of welfare, are consistent with the intentions of the act.
A review of the act is not something too many people would oppose.
But banning winter grazing? We say wishful thinking on the part of SAFE.
