Vote 30 - Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Revised) (21 Jan 2014) Andrew Doyle: It might be no harm to do so. Before I move to programme C, it would be remiss of me not to welcome the reduction in the overall TB numbers. There is an odd hot spot around the country and I happen to live in the middle of one.

Vote 30 - Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Revised) (21 Jan 2014) Andrew Doyle: Perhaps investing money in an identification scheme for horses and dogs through the use of microchipping and so on should form part of a policy to collect data. Data on thoroughbreds and non-thoroughbreds are collected but the problem arises in the area of registered breeds societies. The outturn last year doubled in comparison to the original provision and everybody is anxious about this.

Vote 30 - Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Revised) (21 Jan 2014) Andrew Doyle: The beef data programme is actually simpler than the suckler cow welfare scheme by a mile. It is probably attracting fewer farmers because there is less money available. Can we proceed to subheads B.3.1 to B.3.21, inclusive, please? They concern food safety, animal health and welfare.
