[5385] Mr. Denham: Sir William Stewart was the chairman of the Independent Expect Group on Mobile Phones. The group was commissioned by the Minister of Public Health to assess the current state of research into possible health risks from mobile phones. The Group's report, on Mobile Phones and Health, was published on 11 May 2000. As a result of the precautionary approach recommended in the report, and recognising that concerns had been raised about Airwave, the Home Office commissioned two studies. One study is being conducted by the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (DERA) and the other by the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB). The NRPB have engaged their Advisory Group on Non-Ionising Radiation (AGNIR) to review the available evidence. Both of these studies are in progress. We are anticipating that the AGNIR report will be available in the next few weeks. The DERA study is longer term and DERA will be reporting to us on a regular basis, up to the conclusion of their main programme in May 2002.

16. Okapi Wildlife Reserve UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Okapi wildlife Reserve occupies about one fifth of the Ituri Forest in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Zaire River basin, of which the reserve and forest are a part, is one of the largest drainage systems in Africa and has yielded a large number of major evolutionary discoveries. The wildlife reserve contains threatened species of primates and birds and about 5,000 of the estimated 30,000 okapi surviving in the wild. http://www.unesco.org/whc/sites/718.htm

Okapi Wildlife Reserve Democratic Rep. of the Congo Région du Haut Zaire. Sous région de l' Ituri. 1° 0' N, 28° 2' E Inscribed : Criteria: N (iv) Justification for Inscription: Report of the 20th Session of the Committee Inscription on the List of World Heritage in Danger: Justification for Inscription: Report of the 21st Session of the Committee Brief description: The Okapi Wildlife Reserve occupies about one-fifth of the Ituri forest in the north-east of Zaire. The Zaire river basin, of which the reserve and forest are a part, is one of the largest drainage systems in Africa. The reserve contains threatened species of primates and birds and about 5,000 of the estimated 30,000 okapi surviving in the wild. It also has some dramatic scenery, including waterfalls on the Ituri and Epulu rivers. The reserve is inhabited by traditional nomadic pygmy Mbuti and Efe hunters. Threats to the Site: The Committee inscribed the Okapi Wildlife Reserve on the List of World Heritage in Danger , one year after giving it World Heritage status, due to reports that the armed conflict, which spread to the eastern parts of the country in early 1997, had led to the looting of facilities and the killing of elephants in this site. Most of the staff have fled the Reserve. There have also been reports of gold mining. In the latter part of 1998 however, as a result of renewed fighting in the area, equipment donated by international conservation NGOs has been looted and the staff who were in the process of reviving conservation activities had to be evacuated.

Even though it means loss of revenue, this major carrier has dropped out of the business of moving primates, wild birds and other creatures used in experiments. Air Mauritius has made the same decision - in this case because there is a growing movement worldwide to stop the use of long-tailed Mauritian macaques, some of the sweetest primates on earth who feel pain and distress in ways which replicate human responses.

GSK.com sections About GSK Media Room Investors Careers Products The Community Business Development All of GSK.com GSK Use of Wild Caught Primates And The Development of Alternatives Background The Issue GSK's Position GSK's use of monkeys for oral polio vaccines ... Housing and Care Conditions Background GSK's aim is to discover and develop medicines and vaccines that will help alleviate the suffering caused by disease. Activities at GSK include research, development and manufacturing and all these activities involve the use of laboratory animals to some extent. Animals are used in the drug and vaccine development process to understand disease mechanisms, to discover novel ways to rectify them, and evaluate the efficacy and safety of potential new vaccines and medicines before they are tested in humans. In addition, regulatory authorities require that all new medications must be subjected to extensive and prolonged safety testing in animals (and in human clinical studies) before they are approved for use. For biological products, such as vaccines, specific safety and quality measures must also be met. The vast majority of animals used by GSK are specifically bred for research purposes, of which 98% are rodents. GSK also uses a small number of primates, which comprise less than 1% of the animals used by the company. GSK continues to use primates as they remain essential for testing the safety of vaccines and medicines.

On September 10, 1993, the ASP Board of Directors approved a resolution outlining the Society's position on the conservation of wild primate populations. The text of the resolution follows: ASP Resolution Regarding Conservation of Wild Primate Populations WHEREAS, many wild populations of nonhuman primates are declining due to habitat loss associated with increasing human demands for agricultural land and forest products; and WHEREAS, eradication of primates as agricultural pests and hunting of primates for food are also contributing to the decline of wild primate populations; and WHEREAS, careless capture of nonhuman primates can threaten the viability of natural populations and result in unnecessary suffering, mortality, and wastage; and WHEREAS, the United States is the world's largest importer of nonhuman primates for scientific use and is a Party to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna (CITES); and WHEREAS, the scientific study of nonhuman primates contributes to advances in human and veterinary medicine and yields information that is essential to the conservation of wild primate populations; and WHEREAS, all primate species are listed in Appendix I or Appendix II of the Convention and the Convention recognizes that trade in species threatened with extinction should be regulated; and
