(ANSA) – ROME, MARCH 14 – “We are engaged in examining the legislative proposals on crimes against animals, on the basis of a text shared by all the groups. For this reason it would be very serious if an amendment from the League were to pass which consists in returning to the title of the penal code which refers to “feelings” towards animals, while the basic text correctly reads in the title ‘Crimes against animals’. Years of studies and jurisprudence which now recognize the centrality of the subjectivity of animals would be eliminated “. This was stated by the group leader of the Greens and Left Alliance in the Justice Commission of the Chamber Devis Dori.
“The League’s amendment – he adds – will be voted on next week, but today the Government gave a favorable opinion proposing this reformulation. Animals must be the object of direct protection and not only if there is a human feeling of pity towards them Jurisprudence has already stated this for some time, the legislator must not return to the Middle Ages”.
