GODERICH - Huron -Bruce MP
Paul Steckle was pleased with the
report released April 14, 1994 by
the House of Commons Agriculture
and Agri -Food Committee calling
upon the federal government to leg-
islate a one year moratorium on the
use of recombinant bovine somatot-
ropin (rBST) in Canada.
"We on the committee have done
our job and now that the report has
been released expect the govern-
ment to act quickly and favorably to
all the recommendations, especially
to legislate a one year moratorium
on the use of rBST," said Steckle in
a press release.
"All the major players effected by
the use of rBST have had some con-
cerns and we, as a committee, could
not ignore them."
rBST is a synthetic product equiv-
alent to a natura! bovine growth hor-
mone. It is responsible for stimulat-
ing growth in calves and milk
production in adult cows.
Some of the recommendations
made by the committee include:
•a period of adjustment for the
dairy industry and more public in-
formation 'about rBST;
•a review of the impact of rBST
on the dairy industry, animal
health, genetics, and the U.S. con-
sumer reaction;
•that imported dairy products be
labelled to show that they are re-
specting the moratorium on the use
of rBST;
•and, a look at the effects this
may have on human or animal
health, or the environtment.
Growers required for
identity preserved grain corn
