Lord Lucas

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many cattle born in the United Kingdom in each month since 1 January 1996 have died of BSE in each year since 1996, including the current year to date. [HL1865]

Baroness Hayman

In the UK to 10 April 2000 there has only been one case of BSE confirmed in an animal born on or after 1 January 1996. This animal was born in January 1996, slaughtered as a suspect in December 1999 and the disease confirmed in February 2000.
