‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Live Animal Experiments. Animal-tested imported cosmetics
Summary
Keating asked whether the Minister could influence imports of cosmetics tested on animals; Haughey said his licences cover only strictly scientific medical research.
Does the Minister's concern and interest here extend as far as being able to influence the purchasing, sale and distribution of products such as cosmetics which are imported in relation to which live animals were used for needless experimentation? Allowing for the fact that most of the licences issued are essential much of the problems arise here in the area of imports.
