Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Regulation of Veterinary Medicines: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. J.G. Beechinor:
I am saying that it is not our role. We do not have a role in regulating the licensed merchants. We believe that all actors currently employed in the system ought to have a future in the system, but we do not regulate them and we are aware that the Department has created a multi-stakeholder group. It has done that in the last year. We expect that initiatives, and so on, will be rolled out to ensure that the licensed merchants have a future. However, it is not our role to do this.
