Vets have condemned plans to use taxpayers' money to fund a halal abattoir that uses non-stun slaughter.
The British Veterinary Association is calling on the Welsh government to end talks with Pak Mecca Meats over subsidising job creation at its Cig Menai Cymru abattoir in Caernarfon, Wales.
On its website, the company says it supplies the 'best quality stun free meat in accordance with the highest halal procedures'. It adds that 'given the choice 90% of Muslims prefer non-stun method of slaughter when it comes to consuming halal meat'.
The BVA wrote to Rebecca Evans, Deputy Minister for Farming and Food, and were told the abattoir has been approved by the Food Standards Agency to carry out non-stun killing.
She confirmed the Welsh Government was 'in dialogue with a private company regarding job creation at an abattoir in Caernarfon'.
