To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what recent discussions she has had with the sheep dip sufferers support group on organophosphate poisoning.
- Answer

I met the Sheep Dip Sufferers Group in November last year. The concerns of the Sufferers Group were discussed in detail and we committed to providing information to the group, including the Government’s rationale for ending compulsory sheep dipping.
This information was provided to Tom Rigby (co-ordinator of the Sheep Dip Sufferers Group) in May of this year.
