The Ministry of Climate Change and Environment, MoCCAE, in collaboration with the Ministry of Economy, MoE, and Dubai Municipality, DM, organised a meeting with livestock traders at the Dubai Birds and Pets Market to inspect the processes in place for receiving inbound livestock consignments ahead of Eid Al-Adha and ensuring the readiness of the relevant work teams at the MoCCAE and DM to meet the increased demand.
Speaking about preparations for the upcoming Eid celebrations, Sultan Alwan, Assistant Under-Secretary of the Regions Sector at the MoCCAE, said, "Eid Al-Adha is a peak season for inbound livestock consignments to the UAE. To ensure the rising market demand is met in the smoothest possible way, the MoCCAE has a comprehensive plan in place. As part of this plan, we deploy more doctors at veterinary quarantines as well as veterinary laboratory technicians and extend working hours to facilitate and expedite procedures." Alwan reiterated that the MoCCAE implements strict veterinary quarantine procedures to protect animals from epidemic and contagious diseases that can spread to humans. He noted that to meet this priority, the ministry ensures that laws regulating the trade of livestock are strictly enforced, while also removing all barriers to trade flow. Dr. Hashim Al Nuaimi, Director of the Consumer Protection Department at the MoE, said that the ministry is gearing up for the busy Eid Al-Adha season. , we met with primary livestock suppliers and encouraged them to ensure an adequate supply of sacrificial animals ahead of the festive season of Eid Al-Adha. We are also touring UAE cattle markets to keep a check on prices," he said. He added that the MoE has introduced a consumer monitoring initiative that invites consumers to report any price hikes to regulatory bodies by calling 600-522-225 or the numbers of relevant local departments. Zuhoor Al Sabbagh, Director of the Public Health Services Department at DM, said, "To accommodate a large number of incoming livestock ahead of Eid Al-Adha, we have confirmed the readiness of our veterinary quarantines and laboratories as well as abattoirs. We have also deployed more doctors at veterinary quarantines and veterinary laboratory technicians and extended their working hours at various livestock markets in Dubai." The UAE has received nearly 5,700 cows and 750,000 sheep so far in 2018, all of which have undergone veterinary quarantine and clinical and laboratory tests to ensure they are disease-free and safe for consumption. |
