Public hearing on the fur farming ban
Less than a month before the end of the ten-year fur farming phase-out period, the Ministry of Agriculture opened a new public hearing on a proposal to extend the phase-out period. You can read our arguments against the extension here. The hearing was open until December 20. We thank everyone who commented with the demand that the existing fur farming ban becomes effective with no phase-out period extension. Your participation in the hearing has been of utmost importance for the lives of many animals!x
