Two days after the Government announced its roadmap to allegedly "phase out" animal testing, they published 12 new licences granted during July - Sept 25 that require retrospective assessment. Total animals to be used over 200,000 in the next 5 years. They are mainly mice and zebra fish, but it also includes 92 beagles and 20 macaques.
Licences that require retrospective assessment are severe harm and/or use special species (dogs, cats, horses and NHPs)
Licences for animal experiments are secret. We, the public, are only allowed to see a redacted summary. We believe this licence is for Sequani laboratories in Ledbury where MBR puppies are regularly sent to be tortured and killed.
The suffering and pain these animals will undergo is unimaginable.
