 European Convention for the Protection of Animals during International Transport (revised)
 Official Journal L 241 , 13/07/2004 P. 0022 - 0043
 European Convention for the Protection of Animals during International Transport (revised)
 The Member States of the Council of Europe, signatory hereto,
 Considering that the aim of the Council of Europe is to achieve a greater unity between its members for the purpose of safeguarding and realising the ideals and principles which are their common heritage,
 Aware that every person has a moral obligation to respect all animals and to have due consideration for their capacity for suffering,
 Motivated by the desire to safeguard the welfare of animals during transport,
 Convinced that international transport is compatible with the welfare of the animals, provided that the requirements of animal welfare are met,
 Considering, therefore, that where the welfare requirements of the animals cannot be met an alternative to the transport of live animals shall be implemented,
 Considering, however, that in general, for reasons of animal welfare the period during which animals, including animals for slaughter, are transported should be reduced as far as possible,
 Considering that loading and unloading are activities during which injuries and stress are most likely to occur,
 Considering that progress in this respect may be achieved through the adoption of common provisions regarding the international transport of animals,
 Have agreed as follows:

 1. Animals shall be prepared for the intended journey, be accustomed to the feed to be provided and be able to use the delivery systems for water and feed. They shall be provided with water, feed and a rest period as appropriate.
 2. In order to reduce the stress of transport, due regard shall be paid to the need of certain categories of animals, such as wild animals, to become acclimatised to the mode of transport prior to the proposed journey.
 3. Mixing of animals that have not been raised together or are not accustomed to one another shall be avoided as far as possible.
 LOADING AND UNLOADING
 Article 12
 Principles
 1. Animals shall be loaded and unloaded in such a way as to ensure that they are not caused injury or suffering.
 2. Animals shall be loaded so as to ensure that space allowances (floor area and height) and separation requirements are met in accordance with Article 17.
 3. Animals shall be loaded as close as possible to the time of departure from the place of dispatch.
 4. On arrival at their destination, the animals shall be unloaded as soon as possible, offered an adequate quantity of water and, if necessary, be fed and allowed to rest.
 Article 13
 Equipment and procedures
 1. Loading and unloading shall take place using a properly designed and constructed ramp, lift or loading bay except where animals are to be loaded and unloaded in purpose-built containers. Manual lifting is permissible if the animals are small enough, and even desirable in the case of young animals which might have difficulty in negotiating a ramp. All loading and unloading facilities shall be suitable for their purpose, stable and maintained in a good state of repair.
 2. All ramps and surfaces on which animals walk shall be designed and maintained so as to prevent slipping and their slope shall be minimised as far as possible. Where their slope is steeper than 10°, they shall be fitted with a system, such as provided by foot battens, which ensures that the animals climb or go down without risks or difficulties. The equipment shall be provided with side barriers if necessary.
 3. The interior of the transport unit shall be well-lit at loading so that the animals can see where they are going, depending upon the specific requirements of the species.
 4. Animals shall be loaded only into a means of transport which has been thoroughly cleaned and, where appropriate, disinfected.
 5. Goods which are being transported in the same means of transport as animals shall be positioned so that they do not cause injury, suffering or distress to the animals.
 6. When containers loaded with animals are placed one on top of the other on the means of transport, the necessary precautions shall be taken to avoid urine and faeces falling on the animals placed underneath.
 Article 14
 Handling
 1. Animals shall be handled calmly and gently in order to reduce unrest and agitation to a minimum, and in order to protect the animals from avoidable pain, distress and injury.
 2. Noise, harassment and the use of excessive force during loading and unloading shall be avoided. Animals shall not be struck, nor shall pressure be applied to any particularly sensitive part of the body. In particular, animals' tails shall not be crushed, twisted or broken and their eyes shall not be grasped. Animals shall not be punched or kicked.
 3. Animals themselves shall not be suspended by mechanical means, lifted or dragged by the head, ears, horns, antlers, legs, tail or fleece, or in any other painful way.
 4. Instruments intended for guiding animals shall be used on animals solely for that purpose. The use of instruments which administer electric shocks shall be avoided as far as possible. In any case, these instruments shall only be used for adult bovine animals and adult pigs which refuse to move, and only when they have room ahead of them in which to move. Shocks shall last no longer than one second, be adequately spaced, and shall only be applied to the muscles of the hindquarters. Shocks shall not be used repeatedly if the animal fails to respond.
 5. Persons handling animals shall not use prods or other implements with pointed ends. Sticks or other implements intended for guiding animals shall only be used provided they can be applied to the body of an animal without causing it injury or suffering.
 Article 15
 Separation
 1. Animals shall be separated during transport where injury or suffering is likely to occur if they are mixed. This shall apply in particular to:
 (a) animals of different species;
 (b) animals hostile to each other;
 (c) animals of significantly different sizes or ages;
 (d) uncastrated adult males;
 (e) tied and untied animals.
 2. The provisions of paragraph 1 shall not apply where the animals have been raised in compatible groups, are accustomed to each other, where separation will cause distress or where females are accompanied by dependent young.
 TRANSPORT PRACTICES
 Article 16
 Floors and bedding
 The floor surfaces of means of transport or containers shall be maintained so as to minimise the risk of slipping and leakage of urine and faeces. An appropriate bedding which absorbs urine and faeces and which provides an adequate resting material shall cover the floor of the means of transport or containers, unless an alternative method is used that provides at least the same advantages to the animals.
 Article 17
 Space allowances (floor area and height)
 1. Animals shall be provided with adequate space to stand in their natural position in the means of transport or container. Space to lie down at the same time shall be provided unless the technical protocol or special conditions for the protection of animals require otherwise.
 A technical protocol, drawn up in accordance with Article 34 of this Convention, shall determine the minimum space allowances for animals.
 2. To prevent injury by excessive movement, partitions shall be used to subdivide large groups of animals or subdivide a pen which contains fewer animals than its normal capacity, which otherwise would have too much space.
 3. Partitions shall be appropriate to the size and species of the animals, and shall be positioned, secured and maintained so as to prevent injury or suffering to the animals.
 Article 18
 Tying of animals
 When animals are tied, the ropes, the tethers or other means used shall be strong enough not to break during normal transport conditions, and long enough to allow the animals, if necessary, to lie down and to eat and drink. They shall be designed in such a way as to eliminate any danger of strangulation or injury. Animals shall not be tied by the horns, antlers, legs, nose-rings nor be transported having their legs tied together. Animals shall be tied only with devices allowing them to be quickly released.
 Article 19
 Ventilation and temperature
 1. Sufficient ventilation shall be provided to ensure that the needs of the animals are fully met, taking into account in particular the number and type of the animals to be transported and the expected weather conditions during the journey.
 2. Containers shall be stowed in a way which does not impede their ventilation.
 3. Where animals are to be transported in adverse conditions of temperature and humidity, suitable arrangements shall be taken to safeguard their welfare.
 Article 20
 Water, feed and rest
 1. During transport, animals shall be offered water, feed and the opportunity to rest as appropriate to their species and age, at suitable intervals.
 2. A technical protocol, drawn up in accordance with Article 34 of this Convention, will determine the maximum travelling times and minimum watering and feeding intervals and resting periods.
 3. Water and feed shall be of good quality and presented to the animals in a way which minimises contamination.
 Article 21
 Females in lactation
 Lactating females not accompanied by their offspring shall not be transported for long periods. However, where this is unavoidable, they shall be milked shortly before loading and at intervals of not more than 12 hours during the course of a journey.
 Article 22
 Lighting
 The means of transport shall be equipped with a means of lighting, fixed or portable, sufficient for general inspection of the animals and where this is necessary during transport and for watering and feeding.
 Article 23
 Containers
 1. During transport and handling, containers shall always be kept upright and severe jolts or shaking shall be minimised.
 2. Containers shall be secured so as to prevent their displacement by the motion of the means of transport.
 Article 24
 Care during transport
 The person in charge of the welfare of the animals shall take every opportunity to check them and to administer, if necessary, the appropriate care.

 EXPLANATORY REPORT
 (as adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 11 June 2003 )
 The text of this Explanatory Report does not constitute an instrument providing an authoritative interpretation of the revised Convention, although it might be of such a nature as to facilitate the application of the provisions contained therein. This Convention will be open for signature in Chi>ISO_2>ē>ISO_4>inau, in November 2003, on the occasion of the 113th Session of the Committee of Ministers.
 Introduction
 1. On 19 March 1996 , at the first meeting of the Working Party for the preparation of their third Multilateral Consultation, the Parties to the European Convention for the protection of animals during international transport (ETS 65) recognised that the experience acquired and scientific results obtained since the opening for signature of the Convention permitted them to foresee bringing the provisions up to date and clarifying their wording in order to facilitate its implementation.
 The 1968 Convention
 2. The Convention was elaborated by a Committee of experts set up by the Committee of Ministers in 1965, in reply to Recommendation 287 (1961) of the Consultative Assembly of the Council of Europe on the international transit of animals. In this Recommendation, the Consultative Assembly, ĢConsidering that the humane treatment of animals is one of the hallmarks of Western civilisation, but that, even in Member States of the Council of Europe, the necessary standards are not always observedģ , recommended Ģthat the Committee of Ministers should draft, and invite the Member States to sign and ratify, a Convention for the regulation of the international transit of animals based on a draft prepared by the World Federation for the Protection of Animals, it being understood that the Convention would be open to accession by other States with the least possible formality.ģ
 The Convention was opened for signature on 13 December 1968 and entered into force on 20 February 1970 .
 The Convention was amended according to the provisions of the Additional Protocol (ETS 103) which entered into force on 7 November 1989 , to provide for the signature by the European Economic Community.
 Revision of the Convention
 3. The revision of the provisions of the 1968 Convention was carried out taking into account the Recommendations of the Committee of Ministers Nos R (87) 17 on the transport of horses, R (88) 15 on the transport of pigs, R (90) 1 on the transport of cattle, R (90) 5 on the transport of sheep and goats, and R (90) 6 on the transport of poultry.
 4. Observers from the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA), the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the European Livestock and Meat Trading Union (UECBV), already consulted for the elaboration of the initial Convention, as well as the Animal Transportation Association (AATA), the European Confederation of Agriculture (CEA), the Economic Commission for Europe (United Nations), Eurogroup for Animal Welfare and the Federation of Veterinarians of Europe (FVE), participated in the revision of the Convention.
 5. The revised Convention builds on the lessons learnt from the last 30 years of experience and scientific results made available during this period. It contains provisions designed to overcome defects and to facilitate the implementation of the principles of the Convention.
 The revised Convention was built as a framework convention laying down essential principles applying to all species. It provides for technical protocols which can be amended following a simplified procedure, facilitating thereby their updating in the light of scientific evidence and experience acquired.
 The revised Convention provides for the denunciation of the original Convention. The Parties are thus not simultaneously bound by contradictory undertakings.
 6. After examination and approval by the Parties to the original Convention on 18 to 20 June 2002 , the draft revised Convention was submitted to the Committee of Ministers, which in turn adopted it at its 843rd meeting of the Ministers' Deputies, on 11 June 2003 .
 7. The revised Convention will be opened for signature by the Member States and the European Community in Chi>ISO_2>ē>ISO_4>inau, in November 2003.
 General considerations
 1. A large proportion of the animals carried in international transport are destined for slaughter in the receiving country. For these animals, the Parties to Convention ETS 65 at a multilateral consultation (hereafter, the Parties) recognised that for animal welfare reasons, the ideal would be to restrict this traffic to carcase meat thus ensuring that the animals were slaughtered in the country of origin.
 2. For practical reasons, the Parties have endeavoured to detail the welfare requirements of the principal species only. However, they considered that humane treatment should extend to all species of animals.
 3. The Parties have not established detailed rules and procedures for all the species covered by the Convention, because of their widely differing welfare requirements.
 4. The Parties have established more detailed rules by type of transport rather than by species because the conditions which could affect the welfare of the animals transported are more dependent on the type of transport used.
 5. The Parties have considered only those questions relating directly to the welfare requirements of animals in international transport. They recognised that these provisions are also, in general, relevant for transport within the territory of a contracting Party.
 6. The Parties regarded consideration of civil responsibilities for fulfilling the provisions of the Convention as falling outside their mandate.
 7. The Parties emphasise that the provisions of the revised Convention shall not interfere with the sanitary and veterinary regulations of the Parties.
 BRIEF COMMENTS ON CERTAIN PROVISIONS IN THE REVISED CONVENTION
 Title
 Because the word Ģprotectionģ appears in the title, it is not thought to be necessary to emphasise that the animals concerned are live animals.
 The term Ģinternational transportģ is preferred to the word 'transit' which, in several languages, includes only transports passing through one or more intermediate countries and might therefore give rise to difficulties in translation.
 Article 1
 Definitions
 Paragraph 1
 It is understood that the Convention applies to transport between a Member State of the European Community and a non-Member State of the European Community as well as to a transport between two Member States of the European Community, which will transit by a non-Member State of the European Community.
 Paragraphs 3 and 4
 These definitions in no way prejudge civil or criminal law provisions in force at national level.
 Paragraph 6
 It is understood that transport can be either for commercial or non-commercial purposes.
 Article 2
 Species
 It is understood that international transport of circus animals falls under the scope of the revised Convention.
 Paragraph 1
 This Convention applies to all vertebrate animals. However, some provisions may be inapplicable to certain species because of the biological characteristics of that species. Examples are the provisions on females in lactation in Article 21 of the Convention, which are not applicable to poultry, and the provisions on floors and bedding in Article 16 of the Convention, which are not applicable to fish.
 Paragraph 2(b)
 For the purpose of this Convention, Ģpet animalģ means any animal kept or intended to be kept by man, in particular at home, for his enjoyment and as a companion. For the purpose of this Convention, horses are not considered as pet animals. For the purpose of this Convention, by Ģaccompanyingģ is meant accessible to and under the control of its owner.
 This paragraph mainly concerns dogs and cats. However, the Parties wish to draw attention to the transport of animals described as pets when in fact they were being transported for commercial purposes.
 Article 3
 Application of the Convention
 Paragraph 2
 The objective of this provision is to ensure an appropriate system of training, each Party being free to choose the method of its establishment. It was agreed that although intended for the attendant initially, it should concern all persons involved in the transport of animals. It is understood that training is an ongoing process and applies therefore to both new and experienced personnel.
 Paragraph 3
 While considering that the revised Convention only applies to international transport of animals, the Parties, considering that its provisions aim at protecting the welfare of the animals, recognised their relevance for transport within the territory of a contracting Party.
 Article 4
 Main principles of the Convention
 Paragraph 3
 Control points may be a border, or any other locations where any checks are carried out. This will include for example, spot checks carried out on, animals or vehicle during transport.
 Paragraph 5
 Strikes and similar circumstances can severely affect the welfare of animals in transport and the Parties therefore felt it necessary to refer in the revised Convention to the need to protect animals as far as possible in such circumstances; but they did not consider it appropriate to indicate how this should be done other than to specify that such action should be in accordance with the principles of the revised Convention.
 Article 5
 Authorisation of transporters
 Paragraph 1
 For the purpose of this Convention, transport for commercial purposes is not limited to transport where an immediate exchange of money, goods or services take place in connection with the actual transport.
 For instance, it also includes transport which directly or indirectly involve or aim at a financial gain.
 A farmer transporting his own animals to a slaughterhouse in his own vehicle is thus considered transporting animals for commercial purposes. Furthermore, a transport of sport or breeding horses to a competition, show or exhibition which does not necessarily involve prize money but which may increase the value of the horses, is also considered to be a transport for commercial purposes.
 Article 6
 Design and construction
 Paragraph 2
 It is understood that for the purpose of this Convention, Ģpoultryģ does not include ratites. For poultry, standing upright is not recommended as they risk falling on top of one another during transport, resulting in other welfare problems.
 Article 7
 Planning
 Paragraph 7
 This task of the person responsible for the transport of animals is particularly important when the animals change from one means of transport to another during the journey. It is also important when the animals are unloaded and later on reloaded during the same journey, for instance at resting points, and whenever the responsibility of their welfare changes from one person to another.
 Article 8
 Attendants
 Paragraphs 1 and 2
 If the driver is also the attendant, he/she must have undergone specific and appropriate training or have had equivalent practical experience.
 The word Ģspecificģ indicates that the training must be adapted to the species being transported and the means of transport.
 The Parties expressed the wish that, in the near future, all those persons referred to in this Article would have had a training period and that, in this way, reference to experience only will no longer be possible.
 Paragraph 3
 Even in the absence of an attendant, in accordance with Article 7(7), a person shall always be designated who would be responsible for the welfare of the animals at any time during the journey.
 Article 9
 Fitness for transport
 Paragraph 2(b)
 The term Ģfor experimental or scientific purposesģ is to be defined in accordance with the European Convention for the protection of vertebrate animals used for experimental and other scientific purposes (ETS 123).
 Paragraph 2(c)
 Emergency treatment means veterinary treatment necessarily carried out in a clinic or a hospital.
 Article 10
 Inspection/Certificate
 Paragraph 2
 It is understood that the sanitary certificate usually delivered by the authorised veterinarian will be sufficient warrant provided that all items for which provision is made in this paragraph are included. It is preferable to use a single document.
 Paragraph 3
 The first two paragraphs of this Article specify the provisions which should normally apply. The Parties recognised, however, that there would be certain circumstances in which these provisions might be waived in accordance with specific agreements reached between Parties. The intention is that such waiver would only be exercised where the welfare of the animals is not prejudiced. This waiver may be exercised, for example, in the case of horses for sporting purposes.
 Article 13
 Equipment and procedures
 Paragraph 1
 ĢLoadingģ does not mean only at the time of departure, but also any loading during transport. ĢUnloadingģ does not mean only at the time of arrival at destination, but also any unloading during transport. The term Ģproperly constructed rampģ includes the width which needs to be appropriate to the species loaded or unloaded.
 Paragraph 2
 When drafting the Convention, Parties considered that foot battens presented the greatest advantages from an animal welfare point of view. However, they wished to leave the way open for the development of other equivalent systems.
 Article 14
 Handling
 Paragraph 3
 This provision does not prohibit the leading of an animal, without excessive force, with a rope or head collar.
 Article 15
 Separation
 Paragraph 1
 The provision concerning hostile species takes into account the need to ensure that such animals should not be able to see, hear, or smell each other.
 Article 17
 Space allowances (floor area and height)
 Paragraph 1 (See also comment on Article 6 paragraph 2)
 It is the intention to set minimum space allowances for certain species in a technical protocol to be adopted in accordance with Article 34 of the Convention.
 Article 18
 Tying of animals
 As a general principle, the condition of transport should be such that tying of animals is not necessary. However, it is accepted that tying the animals may be necessary in certain circumstances.
 Article 20
 Watering, feeding and rest
 The Parties recognised that animals need to be watered and fed according to their species and age. Furthermore, the youngest animals are those which need to be fed and specially watered more frequently. It is the intention to set a limit for maximum intervals for certain species in a technical protocol to be adopted in accordance with Article 34 of the Convention.
 Article 21
 Females in lactation
 This provision recognises the important practical problem difficulties associated with milking lactating females during transport.
 Article 24
 Care during transport
 The Parties recognised that even if the transport unit has a seal applied for health or customs purposes, the animals must be inspected, watered and fed.
 Article 25
 Emergency/casualty care during transport
 ĢFirst-aid careģ means appropriate care competently administered. The provision providing that animals Ģbe killed in a way which does not cause them any additional sufferingģ , means that if the person present in charge of the welfare of the animals is not competent to kill an animal of the relevant species, then he or she must find a competent person to do this as soon as possible if it becomes necessary to kill an animal during transport.
 Article 27
 Special provisions for the transport by road
 Paragraph 4
 This check of the animals can be made at each rest or replacement of the driver.
 Article 28
 Special provisions for transport by water
 Paragraph 1
 It is the responsibility of the Parties to ensure that the inspection takes place, regardless of the vessel's country of registration.
 Paragraph 14
 The Parties considered that the requirements of this Article should apply in all cases, but that they could often be met by providing a single spare pen.
 Article 29
 Special provisions for transport by rail or road vehicles on roll-on/roll-off vessels
 Paragraph 6
 Feed might be carried on board the vessel or in the road or rail vehicle, as agreed between the shipping company and the road or rail transporter.
 Paragraphs 6 and 7
 The person responsible for the transport must ensure that the arrangements referred to in those paragraphs are made.
 Article 30
 Special provisions for transport by air
 Paragraph 1
 The Parties have recognised that it was not necessary that each aircraft must be permanently equipped with sophisticated measuring equipment for air flow and quality, temperature and pressure, according to the needs of the species concerned.
 Paragraph 2
 The term Ģcommanderģ means the person designated to have full responsibility and authority to secure the safety of the aircraft and all persons, goods and live animals.
 Article 36
 Settlement of disputes
 Paragraph 1
 The selection or appointment of competent authorities is entirely a matter for each Party.
 Articles 37 to 41
 These provisions are in line with the corresponding standard provisions included in other European conventions.
 In general, the final provisions in this Convention follow the usual pattern of final clauses adopted by the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe for conventions and agreements drawn up within the Organisation.

 A vádlottat a MÁV jegyvizsgálói már jól ismerték, tudták, hogy jegy nélkül közlekedik.
 A vádlott minden alkalommal, mikor az ellenőrök bliccelésen kapták készségesen együttműködött, kitöltötte és aláírta az utasleadási lapot.
 Az utasleadási lap aláírásával azt vállalta vádlott, hogy a jegy árát és a pótdíjat utóbb rendezi, azonban ezeket egyetlen alkalommal sem fizette meg, sem a vonaton, sem később.
 Azonban, ha valaki közreműködik az utasleadási lap kiállításában, akkor az a vonatról nem szállítható le, utazása jogszerű, hiszen együttműködő magatartásával arra nyer jogosultságot, hogy eljusson a szándéka szerinti célállomásra.
 Az első fokú tárgyalás során a vádlott a bíróság előtt elismerte bűnösségét és lemondott a tárgyaláshoz való jogáról.
 A vádlottat korábban már jelentős kárt okozó csalás bűntette, valamint közokirat hamisítás bűntette miatt elítélték, mely büntetések végrehajtását felfüggesztették. A vádlott jelen cselekményét a büntetések felfüggesztésének hatálya alatt követte el.
 A Budapest Környéki Törvényszék, mint másodfokú bíróság a kialakult bírói gyakorlattal összhangban azt a döntést hozta, hogy a vádlott cselekménye csalás bűntetteként nem értékelhető.
 A menetjegy megváltásának elmaradása jelen esetben a MÁV Személyszállítási Üzletszabályzatában írt feltételek megszegése, ami polgári jogi szerződésszegés és nem értékelhető büntetőjogi kategóriaként.
 Mindezekre tekintettel a másodfokú bíróság a vádlottat a folytatólagosan elkövetett csalás bűntettének vádja alól felmentette és mellőzte a szabadságvesztés kiszabásáról és végrehajtásáról, valamint a közügyektől való eltiltásról szóló rendelkezéseket.

Bailey recruited others to sign up for classes at Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids. Bailey then created e-mail accounts for those he recruited. Bailey and his co-schemers used the e-mail accounts to apply for federal financial aid for the others, enroll them in classes, and arrange for their federal loan proceeds checks to be directed to post office boxes under the control of his co-schemers. Those recruited were not really students attending classes.\nBailey was sentenced in Cedar Rapids by United States District Court Chief Judge Linda R. Reade. Bailey was sentenced to 36 months\xe2\x80\x99 imprisonment. A special assessment of $100 was imposed, and he was ordered to make $5,854 in restitution to Kirkwood Community College, and $133,066 in restitution to the United States Department of Education, for a total of $138,920 in restitution. He must also serve a 3-year term of supervised release after the prison term. There is no parole in the federal system.\nBailey was released on the bond previously set and is to surrender to the Bureau of Prisons on a date yet to be set.\nThe case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Peter E.

Dwunastu () – zwyczaj ludowy praktykowany dawniej przez niemieckich mieszkańców Nowej Marchii podczas 12-dniowego okresu pomiędzy Bożym Narodzeniem a Świętem Trzech Króli.
 Według wierzeń ludowych w czasie Dwunastu na ziemi pojawiały się duchy zmarłych. Nie można było wówczas wykonywać hałaśliwych prac, wieszać bielizny ani gotować grochu i fasoli. Złamanie tych zakazów groziło sprowadzeniem chorób i śmierci.
 Duże znaczenie nadawano snom które przyśniły się w tym okresie, a także stronie, na której otworzyło się śpiewnik w noworoczny poranek. Otworzenie strony z pieśnią żałobną wróżyło śmierć, na pieśni weselnej zbliżający się ślub, zaś na pieśni śpiewanej podczas chrztu narodziny dziecka.
