The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, when she plans to publish research priorities for alternative methods to animal testing to support its phasing out.
Answered by Ian Murray
The Government has published a strategy to support alternatives to the use of animals in science.
In the strategy, we commit to publishing areas of research interest, detailing a list of alternative methods research and development priorities to coalesce UK scientists in this area and to incentivise partnerships between research organisations, Clinical Research Organisations and industry.
We will publish this by the end of this year.
