>Today we have placed a full page advert in the West Australian

>newspaper - showing the treatment of Australian sheep in the Middle

>East through photos, and negating industry claims that Australian

>live export is assisting in anyway to raise standards in that

>region. Rather - our advert advises that by continuing to send our

>live animals to the Middle East we also send the message that we

>must be happy with the treatment they receive! Australia is

>therefore contributing to ongoing cruelty in the region.

>

>We have also just revamped the live export section of the AA

>website, added further material and updating existing material.

>Launched just this morning, see 'Live Animal Export - Indefensible'

>at

>Australia website.

>We were keen to make this new and updated material available prior

>to the Al Kuwait court case commencing.

>Standby - after 3 years (since we laid the complaint) the charges

>against Emanual Exports and its 2 Directors will be heard in the

>Perth Magistrates Court from next Monday, 5th of February, and set

>down for 8 sitting days.
