From: John Gregson, Senior Manager, Communications, Waitrose.
FOLLOWING publication of
the letter from Barrie Frost, I would like to point out that Waitrose does not sell halal
meat.
All of the animals that provide our meat are stunned prior to slaughter to render them insensitive to pain. Waitrose does not allow the slaughter of any livestock without proper humane stunning and in this regard we are monitored by the Humane Slaughter Association.
Okay. We must now have similar assertions from ALL other supermarkets.
