Proceeding contribution from George Eustice (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 February 2024. It occurred during Backbench debate and e-petition debate on Animal Testing.


Animal Testing

The hon. Lady makes an important point. Although these technologies are developing year on year, they have been around for some time. She said 10 years, and some would say that some of them have been around for closer to 20 years. Why does she think we have not seen a corresponding fall in the number of animal tests to date? Does she believe that the current project licensing regime is rigorous enough?
