§ Mr. Ron DaviesTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will now take steps to monitor and record the incidences of suspected bovine spongiform encephalopathy cases as between non-EEC export-approved slaughterhouses and EEC export-approved slaughterhouses.
§ Mr. Donald ThompsonThe numbers of suspect cases of bovine spongiform encephalopathy which are identified at slaughterhouses, as part of the monitoring exercise to stop animals slipping through the net, are being recorded, but I have no plans to distinguish between EC export-approved abattoirs and others.
