I welcome the witnesses. I have one question which is a kind of "Do you believe?" or "Do you not believe?" question regarding what is happening. Do they believe that relegating the role of the RP, the farm vet and the veterinary nurse to the role of stockist, and excluding them from the European Platform for the Responsible Using of Medicines in Animals, EPRUMA, advice is demoralising and alienates those with substantial experience and the professional stakeholder groups? Do they or do they not believe that?
