I move amendment No. 39:


In page 22, between lines 29 and 30, to insert the following subsections:"(2) The Minister will draft guidelines outlining acceptable animal health and welfare standards in countries receiving Irish animal exports and which will determine the standard of living to be experienced by that animal in the receiving country.
(3) The animal is not exported to countries that have substandard animal health and welfare regulations as determined by the guidelines defined by the Minister.".
