§ Mr. FREEMANasked the Home Secretary how many experiments were conducted by vivisection on animals in 1929; how many were conducted with inspectors present; how many experiments on dogs were performed when inspectors were present; and have any of the present inspectors previously practised vivisection?
§ Mr. CLYNESThe returns for 1929 are not yet complete, and I am not at present in a position to give the figures. With regard to the last part of the question, neither of the present inspectors has ever held a licence under the Act.
§ Mr. FREEMANasked the Home Secretary the number of experiments on animals by vivisection in each of the last 15 years for the purpose of cancer research?
§ Mr. CLYNESThe figures are published every year in the Annual Return of Experiments on Living Animals. I will send the figures to my hon. Friend.
