PART II STUNNING

8 Specific requirements for stunning by electronarcosis — electrodes
No person shall use, or cause or permit to be used, electrodes to stun any animal unless—
(a) the electrodes are so placed that they span the brain, enabling the current to pass through it;

(c) the strength and duration of the current used is such that the animal is immediately rendered unconscious and remains so until it is dead.
