Baroness Hayman of Ullock (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 January 2026

Debate

Meat Labelling

Contribution

We mentioned the demonstration of life protocol that is used in New Zealand, so there is no non-stun slaughter there, but it has an exception for shechita, which comes to the point that the noble Lord is making. As we discuss this issue further, clearly the issues surrounding shechita and halal killing need to be looked at within those religious communities’ expectations.
