Part of Question Time — scottish executive – in the Scottish Parliament at 2:30 pm on 5 October 2000.
Does the minister agree that one of the issues that should be discussed with the NFUS is that of health and safety on farms, particularly in relation to the practice of belly clipping animals before they go for slaughter? Does the minister agree that there are no reliable statistics on that because of the suspected underreporting of farm accidents?
