Animals (Scientific Procedures) Division (ASPD) and Inspectorate (ASPI) Annual Report 2008
Publication of the an annual Report honours a commitment given by the government in response to a recommendation of the House of Lords select committee on animals in scientific procedures in July 2002.
For the first time this year the Home Office has published a joint “Animals (Scientific Procedures) Division (ASPD) and Inspectorate (ASPI) Annual Report 2008”. The report provides a collective account of many of the ‘behind-the-scenes’ activities of the Home Office staff who regulate this work.
The ASPD operates the licensing system on behalf of the Secretary of State and provides policy advice and support, whilst the statutory role of the ASPI is to advise on proposals for work under the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 and to monitor compliance with authorities under that Act.
