OIE standards are internationally recognised as the only science-based standards on the subject to have been adopted by the World Assembly of Delegates. They are regularly updated in line with the evolution of scientific knowledge and are gradually being fleshed out to cover different aspects of welfare. Consultation with Member States as well as with experts and relevant international governmental and non-governmental organisations is guaranteed throughout the drafting process to ensure their relevance in light of the latest scientific knowledge. Each year, the OIE World Assembly of Delegates adopts new or revised draft standards. Standards dealing with animal welfare are not recognised in the WTO SPS Agreement, unlike those dealing with animal health and veterinary public health. This standard addresses the welfare of dairy cattle in commercial production systems.
