Number of animals used in experiments

The request was successful.

Dear Sabhal Mòr Ostaig,

I am requesting to know the following information under the provisions of the Freedom Of Information Act 2000.

I request to know if your university conducts experiments upon living animals.

If yes to the above question, how many living animals are currently held on the premises for research purposes?

How many living animals were used in experiments between 01/01/2011 and 01/01/2012?

What was the nature and outcome of these experiments?

What species of animal were used?

Which departments of your university were or are engaged in such research?

Yours faithfully,

Luke Beevers.
