Text

I thank the Minister for his response. Given that 10% of herds here have TB when the rate in the South is half that, I completely agree that it is unacceptable. Will the Minister provide an update on the status of the TB eradication partnership's (TBEP) report? Will the tweaking that he is talking about be based on expert and scientific advice?
