Animal Welfare Advisory Committee

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what financial savings his Department expects to make from the abolition of the Animal Welfare Advisory Committee.
Answer

In my statement to the House on 21 July 2010, Official Report, column 15WS, I set out my intention to dissolve the Animal Welfare Advisory Committee (AWAC). Given that the AWAC has not met since 2007, there will be no direct financial savings compared with recent years.
