Question
Does the Welsh Government intend to support the development and rollout of a squirrelpox vaccine?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
We are working with the UK Squirrel Accord to set up a research sub-group which will prioritise research topics in Wales, including consideration of a squirrel pox vaccine.
The Wales Squirrel Forum, an expert advisory group, advises us about all matters concerning both squirrel species in Wales.
