Use Of Primates In Scientific Procedures (EDM1704)

Use Of Primates In Scientific Procedures

EDM number 1704 in 2005-06, proposed by David Drew on 28/02/2006.

That this House notes the use of thousands of non-human primates each year in scientific procedures in the United Kingdom and across the EU; further notes that their level of sentience and highly developed social instincts make it extremely difficult to meet their behavioural needs in a laboratory setting; further notes that physical differences between human beings and other primates may make it impossible to predict reliably human outcomes from primate procedures; further notes public opposition to the use of primates; calls upon the Government to extend the current ban on the use of great apes to all primates as a matter of urgency; and further calls on the Government to press for an EU-wide ban on primate experiments as part of the impending review of European Union Directive 86/609/EEC.

This motion has been signed by a total of 175 MPs, 9 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
