The legislation will come into effect from May 2018, once it passes through Parliament, at which point businesses will have six months to comply.
In August 2017, the Secretary of State launched a consultation on the plans to deliver a manifesto commitment for CCTV to be required in every slaughterhouse in England in all areas where live animals are present, with unrestricted access to footage for Official Veterinarians - reassuring consumers that high welfare standards are being effectively enforced.
A summary of responses published in November showed that of almost 4,000 respondents, more than 99% were supportive of the plans.
