| Popis: | The author's attention is focused on the Animal Welfare Law in the Republic of Serbia and the effects of its ten-year application. In the paper, the author sets herself a goal to evaluate through analysis and critical consideration the individual solutions contained in this statutory text, their quality from the aspect of the protection of animals in relation to the corresponding solutions in the animal welfare acts of Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Croatia. The author's goal is also to examine the effectiveness and practical applicability of the relevant provisions of this statutory text and, on the basis of researched practice of the Misdemeanour Court in Novi Sad, the Misdemeanour Court in Kragujevac, and the Misdemeanour Court in Niš for the last five years of its application. In the paper, the author advocates for amendments to individual solutions, contained in Serbian Animal Welfare Law, which are recognized by practice as insufficiently applicable; for deletion of any solutions directly confronting animal welfare protection, and for strengthening the supervisory and legal mechanism, in order to facilitate the application of this statutory text. In the author's opinion, setting up a Commission for Animal Welfare Protection, as well as the introduction of Commissioner for Animals at the level of each county in the territory of the Republic of Serbia, would contribute to the improvement of application of accompanying by-laws. |
