Seán Fleming
Question:424. Deputy Sean Fleming asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs if her attention has been drawn to the fact that her advisory group, the Irish Deer Management Forum, stated on 30 January 2017, there is presently no conclusive evidence of a link between the strain of bovine TB in cattle and the strain in the wild deer herd and that the testing methodology used in County Wicklow for testing TB levels in wild deer was far more detailed than that used for livestock so levels cannot be compared directly; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
