Le Parlement est aujourd'hui partisan d'un limitation de la durée du transport à à peine quatre heures (ou 250 kilomètres). Une prolongation à huit heures (500 km) est possible à condition que le transporteur possède une licence et que les animaux puissent être couchés durant le transport et disposent d'eau fraîche.

Il a mis en exergue la nécessité d’établir des priorités.
