Request Received: 8 July 2022
For 2021, re Animal Use under ASPA 1986
I note that during the year you were responsible for 169,989 procedures https://www.ukri.org/about-us/mrc/ourpolicies-and-standards/research/research-involving-animals/facts-and-figures/
1) Please can you tell me the number and species of animals, that were killed without being used for regulated procedures?
i.e. Additional statistics on breeding and genotyping of animals for scientific procedures last published in 2017 re Article 54 of Directive 2010/63/EU. If this data would exceed the FOIA time/cost limit please can I just have the figures for any specially protected species.
2) Were any animals rehomed in 2021? If so, please may I have their number and species. Again if this data would exceed the FOIA time/cost limit please can I just have the figures for any specially protected species.
3) Can you please tell me who are the establishments owned by the Medical Research Council (MRC) and if they each have a separate licence.
