Please note:
Animal Aid Network has provided these acts
as a readily-available information resource.
However, during the processing of these Acts
from text to html, although each document has
been carefully checked, it is possible that some
errors slipped through. For a copy of the
original documents, please

Ethical Guidelines
Where legislation is insufficient or non-existent, there may exist other documentation governing the treatment of animals. However, these are not legally binding and therefore not enforceable.

Action to improve legislation
Many animal organisations in this country have recognised the need to improve laws as a primary way to improve the situation for animals. However, it must be borne in mind that without proper implementation of these laws, any act, regardless of how protective it is, is rendered useless. So any action to improve legislation must include follow-up action to ensure that the acts are being put to their intended use.
