Mr. Coughlan spoke earlier about TB resistance and he gave an example of a bull, the female progeny of which had 95% TB resistance. Surely to God that depends on where those animals ended up; let it be a closed farm or an open one. Is allowance made for closed and open farms? There is a lot less TB on so-called closed farms than there is on open farms.
