Proceeding contribution from Owen Paterson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 December 2005. It occurred during Urgent question on Bovine Tuberculosis.
Bovine Tuberculosis
It really is incredible, having spent £2,000 million not curing TB with current methods, that we should have yet another consultation. To secure agreement on a method of culling, the Government must seek a derogation from the 1979 Berne convention on the conservation of European wildlife and natural habitats. Article 9 allows for derogations, but appendix IV lists a number of prohibited culling methods. How long will it take to secure a derogation, and which methods of culling will the Minister seek?
