Question:85 Mr. Gogarty asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children the studies which have been carried out by her Department into the risk of variant CJD from products containing or exposed to bovine-derived materials; the findings which have been published; the screening processes which are in place to ensure that such bovine-derived materials in products such as POLIO SABIN, PRIORIX or the various MMR vaccines are sourced in countries that are free from variant CJD; if her Department has ever analysed the necessity of using bovine-derived as opposed to alternative materials; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
