Animal Experimentation
EDM number 499 in 1998-99, proposed by Nigel Jones on 29/03/1999.
That this House recognises the continued public unease surrounding the use of animal experiments; notes the recent 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 and justification of animal experiments.
This motion has been signed by a total of 224 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
