I move amendment No. 57:


In page 29, between lines 12 and 13, to insert the following subsection:
“(5) The Minister will ensure that humane practices are used in the eradication of mink for their fur or by products and that the use of gas in the killing and eradication of mink on mink farms is not practised, while ensuring that minimal suffering is caused to the animal during the eradication process.”.
