"I would like to thank the Commissioner for his measured statement this afternoon. Members may not know but the farm at Heddon-on-the-Wall in the north-east of England which appears to be the centre of this outbreak is in my constituency and therefore I know at first hand the great devastation it is causing to the farming community and the disruption that it is causing to the meat processing industry, to say nothing of the curtailment of access to countryside pursuits. I would like to express to the farming community in the United Kingdom our great sympathy and concern with this situation.
I would also like to say to colleagues from the mainland continent of Europe that we sincerely hope that we have not exported the disease to mainland Europe. I very much welcome what the Commissioner had to say about the actions that had been taken by the British Government. We all understand that slaughter and stoppage of animal movement is one of the best means of bringing the outbreak under control. He also mentioned vaccination as a further possibility. Can he say anything about the time scale for vaccination?"@en1
