question text	To ask His Majesty's Government what is their target for the number of badgers to be vaccinated against bovine tuberculosis in England in 2024.
tabling member printed	Lord Krebs
uin	HL2554
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/02/2024 answer text <p>There is no specific target number for badger vaccination in 2024. In 2023, just over 3,000 badgers were vaccinated in England. This was the highest annual number vaccinated since the vaccine was authorised in 2010. Whilst we expect numbers to increase this year, the absolute number vaccinated will depend on which areas are targeted and factors such as weather and annual changes in badger populations.</p> answering member printed Lord Douglas-Miller question first answered 27/02/2024 17:17:58 answering member 5006 label Biography information for Lord Douglas-Miller

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/02/2024 answer text <p>To meet our obligations under Section 17 of the Retained EU Law Revocation and Reform (REUL) Act, the first REUL report included a comprehensive list of REUL which has been reformed and revoked and detailed our plans for forthcoming reform SIs. In addition, and to provide Parliament with further insight, the report provided an indication of Government's future roadmap for REUL reform for the whole period to June 2026, informed by reporting from government departments to the Department for Business and Trade (i.e Table 2). In many cases the reforms in the roadmap for future years, are still under development and so the full details of these reforms have not been included in this first report. As details of future reforms are finalised, the Government will provide updates every 6 months via future reports alongside updating the REUL dashboard.</p> answering member printed Lord Johnson of Lainston question first answered 23/02/2024 13:14:19 answering member 4949 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Lainston
