Reactor Animals

Volume 711: debated on Monday 22 June 2009

Question

Asked by

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they have undertaken any research into whether the tabular valuation mechanism has speeded up the removal of reactor animals. [HL4236]

The Government have not undertaken any research into whether the tabular valuation mechanism has speeded up the removal of reactor animals. However, Animal Health has a 20-day target for removing TB-affected cattle and in between April 2008 and March 2009 they met this target in 88 per cent of cases.
