Over recent years, we have had regular contact with the EU Commission and member states, both at an official level and ministerial level, regarding compliance, implementation and interpretation of EU welfare standards for laying hens, meat, chickens and pigs. These discussions are on-going.
Assessment of animal welfare standards across the EU is a matter for the European Commission. The Commission enforces EU law and is fully empowered to take action against member states which fail to deliver on their animal welfare obligations.
There is no specific EU welfare legislation for beef cattle and for sheep beyond the general provisions for all farmed animal species contained in Council Directive 98/58/EC.

Maintenance loans and grants are available to English students undertaking a period of study abroad, provided that period of study forms a part of the course that they are taking at a higher education institution within the UK. For example, Erasmus students studying abroad for a year (or part of a year) remain eligible for maintenance support. The Government also supports other students studying for up to a year abroad—these students remain eligible for a tuition-fee loan and remain eligible to receive maintenance grants and loans.
UK students have the freedom to attend a university anywhere in Europe and benefit from whatever fee support that country offers to its ‘home’ students.
There are no student support arrangements in place in England for those students seeking to study their whole degree outside the UK. Therefore students in England that choose to study at higher education institutions outside the UK are not eligible to receive student support, including maintenance grants and loans, from Student Finance England.
