French text of the proposed law (I'm unclear if this is final text, or just the proposal- but it did pass) http://www.assemblee-nationale.fr/14/propositions/pion4203.asp Release that led me there, linked from Happy Cow: https://medium.com/age-of-awareness/france-passes-historic-bill-ordering-cameras-in-all-slaughterhouses-3b983d53517a#.wqcfki824 The law will require video surveillance in French slaughterhouses. L214, an animal rights organization, says it isn't going far enough, since who sees the footage is limited. L214 makes exposure videos much like American AR groups do. From both animal welfare (rights die at the gate) and worker protection, video is a good idea.
