"Recently, the Victorian Greens introduced the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Amendment and Food Amendment Bill 2014. This bill will mean that the cruelty of factory farming and de-beaking will be banned, along with the legalisation for a 1500 hens per hectare legal definition for free-range eggs."
"As with the ACT Factory Farming Bill, the passage of the Victorian Bill is vitally important for improving the welfare of factory farmed animals – not just in Victoria, but for the 550 million intensively farmed animals in Australia."
