To ask His Majesty's Government what is their planned timescale for reviewing the recommendations contained in the Farm Animal Welfare Committee's Opinion on the Welfare of Farmed Fish at the Time of Killing, published in May 2014; and when they will make the recommendations publicly available.

We asked the Animal Welfare Committee to update its 2014 Opinion on the welfare of farmed fish at the time of killing and we will study their recommendations carefully to determine next steps.
