There has been ongoing occurrences of cruelty to animals by workers.  CCTV acts as a deterrent and is a legally filmed recording that can be used to prosecute. CCTV will be monitored by independent authorities, not by the industry itself.

We demand CCTV in all Australian abattoirs and factory farms.  CCTV acts as a deterrent to workers who may mistreat animals.  CCTV also provides a legally filmed recording to prosecute workers who do so.  With ongoing undercover footage surfacing of animals abused in Australian abattoirs, factory farms and piggeries, MANY caring Australians are looking for solutions!   Help us be a voice for these defenseless animals as we push for the installation of CCTV in all Australian abattoirs, factory farms and piggeries. CCTV ideally will be monitored by independent authorities, and is relatively affordable to implement.   The United Kingdom has a model that we are closely following.  They have successfully had CCTV installed in many slaughterhouses, largely due to the work of UK Animal Aid - by working with UK leading supermarkets and their meat suppliers. Interestingly, the UK Government were initially not interested in helping out, but that has since changed.  In January 2013, a motion was forwarded in UK Parliament for the mandatory installation of CCTV in all slaughterhouses in UK.   Australia continues to lag behind other developed nations when it comes to animal welfare standards. 
You can help by:

1. Supporting and sharing the page.

We will frequently post relevant petitions, and keep you abreast of key animal welfare issues. Afterall, knowledge is power.   2. Writing regularly to members of parliament, including PM Julia Gillard and Senator Joe Ludwig (Agricultural Minister). Reference the UK model in your letters.  3. Writing to Australian leading supermarkets (eg. Coles, Woolworths, ALDI, IGA) asking that they insist their meat suppliers install CCTV. Reference the UK model in your letters.   4. Writing to industry bodies requesting that CCTV become an industry standard. Reference the UK model in your letters.   5. If you are not already, consider reducing your demand on the meat and dairy industry. Ask us for ways to do this, if you are unsure.

Thanks for your support!
