The Assembly of the Republic has adopted new animal protection rules prohibiting the keeping of animals chained or on balconies on a permanent basis, also regulating the use of restraint and training devices.
Two diplomas, resulting from PAN bills, were approved in a global final vote with the votes against the PSD and CDS-PP and the abstention of the PCP. IL voted against the diploma that regulates the use of restraint and training devices and abstained on the chaining and accommodation on balconies
