Book Description
Members of Congress raised concerns in 1992 about the lack of disclosure about the military's use of animals in research. In response, the Defense Department (DOD) began submitting annual reports to Congress in 1994. The following year, DOD established the Biomedical Research Database, which contains information on research projects and training programs involving animals being conducted by its laboratories, military hospitals and bases, and contractors. GAO found that the database has improved public access to information about DOD's use of animals in its research activities. However, GAO also found instances in which the information in the database was inaccurate, incomplete, and inconsistent. Although GAO did not identify the full extent of these problems, the problems GAO identified suggest that DOD needs to improve the accuracy and extent of the information in the database.

Book Description
Scientific experiments using animals have contributed significantly to the improvement of human health. Animal experiments were crucial to the conquest of polio, for example, and they will undoubtedly be one of the keystones in AIDS research. However, some persons believe that the cost to the animals is often high. Authored by a committee of experts from various fields, this book discusses the benefits that have resulted from animal research, the scope of animal research today, the concerns of advocates of animal welfare, and the prospects for finding alternatives to animal use. The authors conclude with specific recommendations for more consistent government action.

Book Description
In 1992, congressional concerns were expressed about the lack of disclosure of the Department of Defense's (DOD) animal use programs and activities. In response, DOD began submitting annual reports to the Congress in 1994. In 1995, to respond to continued congressional concerns and direction, DOD established the Biomedical Research Database (BRD) containing information on individual research projects and training programs involving animals being conducted by its laboratories, military hospitals and bases, and contractors. House Report 103499, issued by the House Armed Services Committee in its consideration of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal Year 1995, directed us to examine several issues related to DOD'S administration of its animal research programs. We are examining the extent to which DOD'S research using animals addresses validated military objectives, does not unnecessarily duplicate work done elsewhere, and incorporates methods to reduce, replace, and refine the use of animals. In the course of doing this work, we identified problems with the quality of information in the BRD. The purpose of this report is to bring these problems to your attention. We are continuing our work on the broader issues and will report the results of our review of DOD'S use of animals in research at a later date.
