Question:119 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food his views on the announcement by the British Animal Health and Welfare Minister, Mr. Ben Bradshaw, who has suspended reactive culling of badgers in the so-called Krebs experiment due to the fact it increased the incidence of tuberculosis in cattle rather than reducing it and concluded that culling badgers had increased the incidence of bovine tuberculosis disease by 27%.
