The Strategy sets out Governments vision for the delivery of animal welfare in England. It is aimed at stakeholders in all sectors and sets a clear direction of travel for achieving good welfare in the future. It includes 5 specific Strategic Goals, focused on key areas, and it explains that improvements in welfare will require a move towards greater partnership working, with an appropriate division of responsibility between Government and its stakeholders and an increased focus on innovative, non-regulatory delivery mechanisms. It defines clear roles and responsibilities for those involved in the care of animals and it sets out principles for use in prioritising future work.
