Question for written answer E-000571-14
to the Commission
Rule 117
Marina Yannakoudakis (ECR)

In May 2013 the Commission announced that it was bringing forward a proposal for animal welfare, including equine health and welfare. Could the Commission inform me when it expects its proposals to come into force, and whether it will monitor their implementation to ensure that an effective and accurate equine database is established in each Member State?
