Text
The Minister will appreciate that TB eradication is probably one of the most researched subjects, going back to the work of the TB eradication partnership (TBEP) and the earlier test and vaccinate or remove (TVR) study that former Agriculture Minister Michelle O'Neill implemented. When are we likely to see a holistic implementation strategy from the partnership steering group to move towards eradicating, once and for all, a dreadful disease that forces the cull of over 20,000 cattle a year?
