A few constituents have written to me with a
campaign email entitled “Please sign EDM 291 calling for a ban on warfare
experiments on animals”.
As a principle I never sign early day motions as
they very rarely achieve anything whilst at the same time running up costs to
the taxpayer.
I am not in a position to verify the claims made by
Animal Aid however that is not to say I do not have considerable concern with
the matters raised. As such I will be taking up these matters with ministers
and their officials when I see them.
