Meat Standards Website?

Hello all
I would like to keep tabs on where my meat (mostly beef, pork and chicken) is coming from, and would like to source it from countries (if I do have to eat produce from outside the UK) that have at least some basic animal welfare standards. For example, I haven't bought pork from Holland for a number of years because of their treatment of pigs.
Is there a website out there that has done all the hard work for me and gives an outline of each country's general standards? I bought some chicken the other day which also stated it was from Holland and I haven't got a clue what their welfare standards are like for poultry!
Hope this makes sense.

The red tractor logo pretty much does this.
It ensures that there are certain traceability standards, and that the welfare standards are adequate.

It is not solely for UK produce.0
