Question
To ask Her Majesty's Government further to the Written Answers by Lord Darzi of Denham on 22 July 2008 (WA 243–45), 5 May (WA 96) and 20 May (WA 317–8), why Roslin Cells Limited was not included among the centres which have publicly available inspection reports that provide details on the culture of outgrowing embryos, if the objective of the centre's licence was to derive embryonic stem cells.
Answer
I have been advised by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority that the inspection report of Roslin Cells Limited was not included among the centres referred to in my Answer of 5 May 2009 (WA 96), because the latest inspection report does not contain details of the embryo culture method used.
