Live cattle exports to Egypt resume
4 Oct 2006
Live cattle exports to Egypt will resume after a seven-month ban prompted by animal cruelty claims at an Egyptian abattoir. Live exports could resume within weeks. Under the new agreement, three Egyptian abattoirs - including the one at the centre of the allegations first raised in February - will be accredited to handle Australian cattle. Cattle would be traced from the farm gate to Egyptian feed lots through their Australian National Livestock Identification System tags.
