Commenting on the decision by the Welsh Government to change a policy proposal which would have prohibited the feeding of unpasteurised milk to livestock on Officially TB Withdrawn (OFTW) premises, Welch Conservative Shadow Rural Affairs Minister, Samuel Kurtz MS said:
This is a welcome U-turn from the Welsh Labour Government following positive engagement from farming stakeholders.
However, the Welsh Government still needs to do more to tackle the devastation that bovine TB is causing the livelihoods and mental health of farmers in Wales.
Nothing should be off the table to stamp out Bovine TB. The Welsh Conservatives would use every tool in the toolbox to eradicate this disease, from cattle vaccinations and improved testing regimes to removing infected wildlife.”
