EDM number 1704A1 in 2005-06, proposed by Evan Harris on 25/07/2006.

leave out from `setting' to end and add `calls for the ban on the use of great apes to be extended to all primates when suitable alternatives become available, but recognises in the meantime that UK animal welfare standards are high, that primate research is only licensed when there is no alternative and that insights into diseases such as HIV/AIDS, TB and Parkinson's disease are crucially dependent on primate models.'.

This is a ammendment to 1704.
