2022 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine

9:30 am

Mr. Martin Blake:

We all revert back to the Animal Health and Welfare Act 2013, for which we are the policy lead. If there is any report in relation to animal welfare and it comes to us, we will investigate it either ourselves directly or through authorised officers that we have in the ISPCA, DSPCA and the IHRB.
