When PETA U.K. learned that the agency responsible for overseeing the largest animal testing program in the world had failed to investigate numerous cases in which seemingly avoidable animal testing had been conducted, PETA U.K., with the help of PETA U.S. scientists, submitted a detailed official complaint. After two years of filing amended complaints and negotiating with the European Ombudsman, who is responsible for government oversight, the Ombudsman rendered a ruling agreeing with PETA U.K. This means that the agency should fulfill its mandate and ensure that animal use is minimized. This ruling has the potential to save millions of animals.
