What assessment has the Minister made of the recent cases of blackleg in calves occuring in parts of Wales?

Answered by Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd | Answered on 19/01/2024

As a non-statutory disease that is preventable by vaccination, our assessment is further emphasis of the need for proactive animal health planning by collaborative working between animal keepers and their vet.
