Mr. Conor Geraghty:

For antiparasitics, the existing responsible persons who are there to dispense those medicines, also employed by veterinary practices, are trained on a short course on how to dispense and advise on dosing etc. We have no issue with that and that avenue of sale will remain post 2022. Prescribing of veterinary medicines is entirely different. As it is an act of veterinary medicine, one has to be a vet to do so.
