The Animal Sentience Committee sent a letter to the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee on 23 March 2026, providing its opinion on the recently published animal welfare strategy for England 2025. In the letter, the committee outlined how the strategy should consider the impacts on animal welfare, highlighting the importance of evidence‑based approaches and the need for clear guidance for stakeholders. The document was published by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs on 30 March 2026 and is available on the GOV.UK portal. The committee’s comments aim to ensure that animal welfare considerations are fully integrated into the policy framework and that implementation aligns with national welfare standards.
