HC Deb 03 May 1990 vol 171 cc640-1W
Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what information he records on the incidence of myxomatosis in wild and domesticated rabbits.

Mr. Maclean

No data are available on myxomatosis in wild rabbits although we are aware that the disease is still prevalent.

Among domestic rabbits, the veterinary investigation service recorded six outbreaks of the disease in 1989.
