The Road Transport Academy in Hungary has decided to include live-animal transport in their curriculum, as requested by the official road inspectors in Hungary. As of recently, Hungarian road inspectors have to now also learn about the European legislation on the protection of animals during transport, so they can check on animal-welfare during transport and enforce the rules.\nEyes on Animals and TSB|AWF was asked to help with the compulsory further-education course of the road inspectors in Hungary. Today, Levente (our Hungarian trainor\/inspector) gave a lecture on the EU animal-protection-during-transport regulation and the related national legislation to the officers of the National Hungarian Transport Authority of Budapest. The organizer of the training, the Road Transport Academy is a reknowned education centre in Hungary, providing courses for truck drivers as well.
\nEonA and TSB|AWF has been asked to provide this same lecture for the local road inspectors in 4 other regions of the country later in April. We hope that by involving another authority in checking livestock trucks, the welfare of animals during transport will be better monitored and rules effectively enforced.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
