Proceeding contribution from Lord Redesdale (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 May 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Mutilations (Permitted Procedures) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2008.


Mutilations (Permitted Procedures) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2008

We have no difficulty with the regulations. I have one question, since this provision has been updated to cover areas that were not formerly included. The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill is going through Parliament. Ova are collected from cattle, and human DNA is used with cattle ovum. Is the recovery of the ova from cattle covered by the regulations, or will we have to come back to that later?
