HC Deb 28 November 2000 vol 357 c574W
Mr. Yeo

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what estimates he has of the quantity of cattle carcases in storage awaiting disposal under the over-30-months scheme arrangements. [139632]

Mr. Nick Brown

[holding answer 21 November 2000]: There are no cattle carcases in storage waiting disposal under the OTMS arrangements.

During 1996–97, approximately 76,000 tonnes of material, representing some 230,000 carcases, was consigned to cold storage pending rendering and incineration capacity being made available. The last consignment of carcase material was removed from cold storage for processing in October 1997.
