Eradication of Bovine TB: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Dr. Damien Barrett:

It is interesting that the UK is probably the leader in this as it is a country that is not self-sufficient in livestock produce. It could consume all its livestock produce, whereas we could not. I would not underestimate the challenge of getting international agreement to this because our competitors would be only too glad to put a stick in the spokes of our bicycle.
