Royal Commission On Animal Experiments
EDM number 1036 in 1999-00, proposed by Nigel Jones on 26/07/2000.
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 and justification of animal experiments.
This motion has been signed by a total of 226 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
