Animal Experiments

EDM number 263 in 2013-14, proposed by Paul Flynn on 17/06/2013.
Categorised under the topic of Animal experiments.

That this House notes the new campaign For Life On Earth which is critical of avoidable experiments on animals; is alarmed that all studies measuring the claimed ability of animals to predict human responses expose a low success rate in the region of 31 per cent; further notes that a success rate in the region of 90 per cent is required by medical practice; further notes that the National Cancer Institute has said that cures for cancer have been lost because studies in rodents have been believed; and calls for properly moderated scientific public debates on the misleading results and bad science of animal experiments.

This motion has been signed by a total of 53 MPs.
