HC Deb 07 March 1978 vol 945 cc587-8W
47. Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether, having regard to the Prime Minister's views expressed in the Official Report, 8th December 1977, column 1643, he will fund or cause to be funded research projects designed to develop alternative systems instead of the use of animals in toxicity testing and hazard evaluation.

Mr. Moyle

I am considering, with colleagues in other Departments the extent of the role my Department can play.
