Baroness Byford

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the results of research undertaken under the sustainable livestock programme are always free for publication, even when supported financially by (a) industry and (b) the Government. [HL758]

The Minister of State, Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Baroness Hayman)

All projects in the sustainable livestock production LINK programme are supported by both industry and public funds. Results for each research project are free for publication once the research consortium has had the opportunity to patent or benefit from the intellectual property generated by the research.
