Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Mr. Colm Forde:

I would not want to oversell this as a developed policy that could be rolled out quite quickly. We said we would look at it for stakeholders to outline the potential pros and cons that would be associated with it. Basically, what the Senator has said is correct. One of the options available will be that vets would not be permitted to sell the products and would be permitted to prescribe only. My colleague, Ms Barry Walsh, may want to add something further.
