Primate Experiments
EDM number 1307 in 2002-03, proposed by Norman Baker on 03/06/2003.
That this House believes that experiments on primates cannot be justified in view of the important biological differences between people and primates and their well-developed intellectual and social awareness, which makes their needs impossible to meet in a laboratory and their suffering so severe; notes public opposition to the practice; therefore believes it is time for the UK to adopt the Zero Option, a total end to experiments on all primates; and calls upon the Government to extend the ban on the use of great apes to all primates as a matter of urgency.
This motion has been signed by a total of 131 MPs.
