As stated in my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 97 of 8 October 2003, the proposed survey and sampling of badgers was conducted under licence in mid November last and a number of badgers have been sent for post mortem examination. The results of these examinations are not yet available and the findings will be taken into account in determining the policy to be adopted in this area.
