asked Her Majesty's Government:

With reference to the Diseases of Animals (Approved Disinfectants) (Fees) Order 2008 (SI 2008/652), whether there is any immediate need for new disinfectants to deal with outbreaks of foot and mouth disease or swine vesicular disease. [HL2878]

There are almost 200 veterinary disinfectant products which are approved for use under the Swine Vesicular Disease Order, and 200 approved for use under the Foot and Mouth Disease Order. Therefore, there is no immediate need for new disinfectants to deal with outbreaks of either disease.

A full list of approved disinfectants can be found on the Defra website.
