President's Fiscal Year 2005 Budget Would Increase BSE Funding $8 Million

President Bush's proposed budget for fiscal year 2005, released February 2, would boost spending to prevent Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy by $8,325,000 to support new Food and Drug Administration and U.S. Department of Agriculture safeguards against BSE.

With this increase, total spending on BSE control is increased to $29.8 million, which includes the $21.5 million in the base budget.

The FDA and USDA initiatives were adopted following the December 23, 2003 discovery of an infected cow in the U.S. imported from Canada.

President Bush is increases the resources available to the FDA to help them accomplish the following goals:

• Carry out (by FDA) an additional 920 risk-based BSE inspections and 600 targeted sample collections and analyses of both domestic and imported animal feed or feed components;
• Fund 2,500 more State inspections of animal feed firms;
• Acquire further information on feed firms and firms handling prohibited rendering materials; and
• Strengthen the States' infrastructures to monitor, and respond to, potential feed contamination with prohibited materials.
