Why doesn’t the Strategy address animals used in research?
A. The Strategy doesn’t apply to the use of animals in experiments and other scientific procedures as this is strictly regulated by the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986. The Act applies to the whole of the United Kingdom and is administered by the Home Office in England, Scotland and Wales and by the Department of Health, Social Security and Public Safety in Northern Ireland.
