Badger Culling

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Doughty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 March 2017. It occurred during e-petition debate on Badger Culling.

The hon. Gentleman is generous. I never suggested that vaccination alone was a solution. The chief veterinary officer for Wales has been clear, and has spoken of a combination of increased testing frequency, improved biosecurity and other cattle control measures, as well as vaccination. There is a huge disparity between the 16% reduction in England and the 47% reduction in Wales. Clearly, there is a difference in the way the approaches work.
