§ Mr. HayesTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what representations his Department has received on the implementation of the Krebs report. [49223]
§ Mr. RookerWe received over 300 responses to the formal consultation on the Krebs report and have received more since it ended. Respondents fell into five main groups badger groups and individuals interested in badger conservation; other welfare and wildlife interests; farmers and farming organisations; the veterinary profession; and research interests. I am hoping to make an announcement before the House rises for the summer recess.
