Substantial revision of these Draft Guidelines is required. In addition, the core safeguards governing proof, prevention, authorisation, animal well-being, prohibited methods, monitoring, transparency and enforcement should be contained in binding national Norms and Standards or other enforceable legislation.
The undersigned Members of WAPFSA, therefore, do not support the finalisation of the Draft Guidelines for the Management of Damage-Causing Animals in South Africa in their present form.
