Thanks for the response Klara- this is really interesting. Am I right in reading you as saying that the provision of your core funding is conditional on it being used for land-based farm animals?
There are no restrictions on our core funding based on type or breed of animal, whether land-based or otherwise.
The only restriction is due to the fact the grant comes from a US 501(c)(3) organisation (THL) and is, therefore, subject to US laws regarding lobbying. As such, this funding cannot be used for lobbying or legislative work, such as our legal case challenging the legality of fast growing breeds of chicken and our fish work, which, up until now, has been solely focussed on legislative action.

Thanks Klara, I didn’t realise that legal campaigns had to be funded separately, this is very useful info.
