2003 Regular Session

House Bill 6555

AN ACT CONCERNING THE CONNECTICUT VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC LAB.

Did not become law. It stopped in the House of Representatives on May 14, 2003. The 2003 session has ended.

What it does

The synopsis the General Assembly published with the bill.

The Connecticut Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at The University of Connecticut provides the veterinary pathological and diagnostic expertise necessary for investigation and control of diseases that affect Connecticut's citizenry and animals such as bioterrorism threats posed by Anthrax, West Nile Virus, Lyme Disease, Mad Cow Disease and Foot and Mouth Disease. State financial support for the lab through the Department of Agriculture has decreased over the past ten years to a point where such support does not cover the cost of staff and the lab's accreditation is threatened. The goal of this bill is to provide a permanent, adequate source of funding for this lab which is one of the most comprehensive labs of its type in the eastern United States.
