Calls for the ban on live exports to be kept w/ CEO of SAFE Aotearoa, Debra Ashton: 27th June, 2024.

A ban on live animal exports was introduced last year by the previous Labour government. However, the coalition government has said it would like to reverse it. 

This past week, a petition signed by over 57,000 people was handed to parliament, calling for the Government to keep its ban on live animal exports. 

Producer Sofia spoke to CEO of SAFE Aotearoa, Debra Ashton, about the petition, the importance of keeping the ban, and what reversal could look like.
