In the Lords

I could not agree more with my hon. Friend and I will making that point in more detail shortly.

I could not agree more with my hon. Friend and I thank him for making that point.

My hon. Friend makes an extremely important point.

That is a very good point.

That is exactly right. That has been a barrier all the way along from the Government’s point of view.

Well, we normally agree, and I thank my hon. Friend for his intervention.

I am going to move on, but the chief veterinary officer in Wales takes a different view.

She wants selective, as opposed to general, preventive culls, and that is different to our approach here in England.

Our approach is not selective.

I thank the hon. Lady very much for her intervention, and I could not agree with her more strongly.
