Royal Commission On Animal Experiments
EDM number 490 in 2000-01, proposed by Nigel Jones on 27/03/2001.
That this House recognises the continued public unease surrounding the use of animal experiments; notes the half million signature petition presented to the Prime Minister's Office by Naturewatch supporters; deplores the excessive secrecy which still permeates the animal experiment industry; and urges Her Majesty's Government to set up a Royal Commission inquiry to review the effectiveness of and justification for animal experiments.
This motion has been signed by a total of 237 MPs.
