What the petition asks
To whom it may concern,
I would like to create a type of add on the animal welfare law. This would help protect businesses and animal welfare alike. I have worked hard to raise awareness for this and would like to have it put into effect.

I would like this to come into parliament for debate and if possible come into law. I would like to protect animals from mass amounts of cruelty taking place at one establishment. I am intentionally directing this at businesses that take money or donations for the viewing of animals not farms or agriculture. I think this would also help businesses as public reports would leave no room for speculation regarding the way they’re treating their animals.
