| Text proposed by the Commission | Amendment |
|---|---|
| (36 a) Veterinarians play a critical role in ensuring that One Health principles - which recognise the interconnection between human, animal and environmental health - are respected across the Union. Veterinarians are essential in safeguarding animal welfare standards, preventing the spread of zoonotic diseases, and identifying risks related to public health, including the management of cross-border public health threats, and biodiversity. Given their expertise, veterinarians should actively contribute to the early detection and reporting of severe cases of animal maltreatment, including neglect, abuse, and acts of violence against animals. If veterinarians identify instances of violence or domestic violence involving companion animals, they should be required to report such findings to the competent authority, ensuring that necessary follow-up actions are taken to protect both animals and vulnerable individuals. To provide a harmonised and effective approach, the Commission should be empowered to adopt delegated acts establishing specific obligations and reporting procedures for veterinarians to ensure the effective enforcement of animal welfare standards and the One Health approach. |
