"One of Ireland's leading livestock marts was fined €4,250 for animal welfare breaches after a Department of Agriculture review was triggered by an RTÉ Investigates programme into the mistreatment of calves."
A leading Irish livestock mart received a €4,250 fine for breaches of animal welfare standards. The Department of Agriculture launched a review after evidence surfaced from an RTÉ Investigates programme into calf mistreatment. The broadcast, aired in 2023 under the title Milking It, included photographic and video material showing young animals being mistreated. The review findings led to enforcement action and the monetary penalty for welfare breaches. The case links investigative evidence to regulatory inspection and sanctioning in response to documented calf welfare violations.
