Abstract
The aim of this report is to provide an account of the specific challenges faced by government inspectors who enforce animal welfare legislation on farm and at transport in the EU. Building on the insights from the 2022 report on “The Challenges and Needs of Animal Welfare Inspectors on Farm and at Slaughter” (Mc Loughlin, 2022), this report is based on fieldwork in three member states, specifically Italy, Finland, and Poland. This report’s focus on farm and transport inspection is designed to provide an additional account of welfare inspection, with a specific attention to the unique difficulties associated with overseeing welfare and enforcing legislation during transport inspection. The inclusion of two new countries, Italy and Finland, is designed to provide further insights into farm inspection across the EU member states.
