Defra has confirmed that the second year of badger culling pilots will not be scrutinised by the independent expert panel which criticised 2013's cull in Somerset and Gloucs.
DEFRA has confirmed that the 2nd year of the badger culling pilots in England won't be scrutinised by an Independent Expert Panel. The Panel's report on last year's cull in Somerset and Gloucs found that some humaneness and effectiveness targets hadn't been met.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Sarah Swadling.
