Select Committee on Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Minutes of Evidence


Supplementary memorandum submitted by the Secretary of the Independent Scientific Group on Cattle TB (P35A)

  Further to Professor Bourne's letter of today's date, to you, I have been asked to send you the table below as the ISG will wish to refer to the figures contained in it when discussing the TB99 questionnaire. Professor Bourne feels it would be of value to your Committee to have the figures to hand.
