Resolution At-Vote: International Charter For Animal Welfare

LinkForum Voting Thread

Our Vote recommendation: NO PREFERENCE


Ministry Review

Proposal Overview:

This proposal aims to protect non-sapient beings, or beings capable of feeling but not considered "persons" by legal or scientific consensus, from suffering caused by sapient beings. The proposal mandates freedom from extreme and unnecessary pain, and prohibiting abusive practices like tail-docking, castration, debeaking and iron branding without anaesthesia, as well as mental health endangering actions like sensory overload or isolation. Furthermore, if passed, a designated "Protection of Animal Welfare Society" would be entrusted to oversee funding and support to entities whose intention is to aid the welfare of non-sapient beings

Ministry Analysis:

The proposal seeks to prevent harm to non-sapient beings in both physical and mental forms. It also aims to fund entities whose main objective is to protect non-sapient beings and their general welfare; with the ultimate goal of ending the physical, mental, and emotional abuse of non-sapient beings. However, the definition of "non-sapient beings" is written broadly, and could lead to possible ethical and legal problems. Specifically, the definition of "abuse" and "blood sports" could be interpreted to include hunting, which conflicts with existing resolutions that permit hunting. The issues raised could open the World Assembly up to future repeal efforts if the resolution is passed, and may impose significant burdens on member nations. Weighing the benefit of preventing harm to non-sapient beings with the contradictions and issues noted, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs doesn't recommend any particular vote on this resolution.
