Y Dirprwy Weinidog Ffermio a Bwyd (Rebecca Evans): Whilst policy surrounding antibiotic usage in animals is not a devolved matter, the Welsh Government does recognise the importance of this issue. The Welsh Government remains committed to supporting the UK Five Year Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Strategy, which was launched by the UK Government in 2013, addressing both human and animal antibiotic usage.

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) held an AMR summit in November 2014, to drive forward the animal health implementation of the UK strategy.  Key leaders from across the UK food animal, equine, companion animal and professional standards sectors were in attendance. The Welsh Government was represented and a member of the Wales Animal Health and Welfare Framework Group also attended.

The first annual progress report on the UK 5 year antimicrobial resistance (AMR) strategy is now available, see attached link.

https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/antimicrobial-resistance-amr-information-and-resources

The report sets out work that is underway and some important achievements in the first year. The report also includes detail of actions over the remaining 4 years of the strategy.

The Welsh Government, in partnership with the Wales Animal Health and Welfare Framework Group are also working with the GB wide Cattle and Sheep Health and Welfare Industry Groups. These Groups also have antimicrobial resistance as one of their top priorities.

Lynne Neagle (Torfaen): Pa gamau y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn eu cymryd i leihau'r defnydd o wrthfiotigau ymysg anifeiliaid yng Nghymru?(WAQ68584)

Derbyniwyd ateb ar 21 Ebrill 2015

Rebecca Evans The Welsh Government recognises that careful use of antibiotics in animals as presented by a veterinary surgeon, is an important tool alongside other measures to raise standards of animal health and welfare.

The Welsh Government in partnership with the Wales Animal Health and Welfare Framework Group are committed to the UK wide Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Strategy and Action Plan. To reflect this commitment, AMR has been identified as one of the top priority areas for action under the Wales Animal Health and Welfare Framework for 2015/16, due to be published in June 2016.  Key areas identified for action include:

• Increasing awareness of and education on AMR.
• Continuing the promotion of good husbandry and biosecurity practices to help control zoonoses, endemic and exotic animal diseases.
• Supporting work at the UK level to develop improved data collection and evidence gathering to ensure a robust evidence base is in place to inform future actions.
• Continue to promote the minimising of routine use of preventative antibiotics. To this end the Wales Animal Health and Welfare Group have already published an article in the Jan/Feb edition of Gwlad magazine (see link below).

Jane Hutt: The Wales Procurement Policy Statement sets out the principles by which I expect procurement to be undertaken in Wales. The Policy is already fully supportive of the principles of the Charter, specifically through adoption of existing tools such as the Sustainability Risk Assessment and the Community Benefits approach. I will be shortly announcing a refresh of the Policy Statement and this will focus on measuring the impact of the public procurement in Wales.
