Still doesn't change the fact that chlorinated washing was banned by the EU because it does a BETTER job than their alternative. Chlorinated washing meant that bad abattoirs meant the post-wash chicken met the required standards, whereas better abattoirs didn't need such a good treatment to meet those same standards. If chlorinated washing was allowed, then the post-wash standard of the chickens from the better abattoirs would be BETTER than it is now.
An example of the UK and EU being free and easy with food welfare is in relation to animal slaughter. Kosher and Halal slaughter is held to lesser standards. Although UK law insists the religious slaughter only takes place to provide meat for those religions, how much of that is followed?

The HFA estimates 15% of all meat slaughtered in the UK is halal compliant.

Are Muslims consuming 15% of UK meat? I assume the 100% includes Pork, so their non-pork consumption is much higher than 15%.
