In their resolution on the “End the Cage Age” European citizens’ initiative, Members of the European Parliament ask the Commission to come up with legislative proposals to ban caged farming in the EU, possibly already by 2027, following an appropriate transition period and after a solid scientific impact assessment has been carried out.
The resolution was adopted on 10 June with 558 votes in favour to 37 against, and 85 abstentions.
