§ Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknishasked Her Majesty's Government:
When an announcement will be made on the future of testing for salmonella in eggs.
Earl HoweImported eggs are already subject to salmonella testing and where positive results are found, these are pursued with the exporting member state.
We have no plans to extend the present salmonella controls on the testing of poultry breeding and laying flocks to the testing of home-produced eggs.
