Regulation 26 Conditions to be observed in connection with the stunning and slaughter of animals

Any licence granted by a local authority (otherwise than by way of renewal of an existing licence) to any person under section 39(1) of the Act shall, unless that person has worked as a slaughterman for at least 3 months and has satisfied a local authority or, in the case of the slaughter of animals by the Jewish method, the Rabbinical Commission, of his ability to slaughter animals with the infliction of as little pain and suffering as possible, be granted subject to a condition that he shall not slaughter any animal except under the supervision of a person holding a licence in force under that section which is not subject to a similar condition.
