Harm-benefit analysis in Switzerland
• harm-benefit analysis as integral part of Swiss animal experimentation legislation
• severity grade catalogue (available at www.bvet.admin.ch)
• accountability of applicants– prospective evaluation– retrospective evaluation

Harm-benefit analysis in theory and practice
• Art. 19 Abs. 4 TSchG (Animal Welfare Law)
infliction of pain, suffering, damage or anxiety to an animal must not be licensed if there is no evidence of a benefit overbalancing the animal's suffering
Theory and Practice: nodding acquaintances

Harm-benefit analysis in theory and practice
• in practice: mere formality
explanation that the meant project is able to contribute to the development of new therapies
rather 3R boards (with focus on refinement and reduction)

Closing words
• focus on implementation
vast deficiencies in practice: reduction to formalityuntouchable science stuck in tradition
• examination of implementation
• authorities decisions have to be strenghtened
