Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
General Scheme of the Veterinary Practice (Amendment) Bill 2021: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Niamh Muldoon:
Yes, they have to be on our register. They would not carry the same requirements in terms of indemnity because they may not be providing services to the public, for example, they may be operating from exempted premises or be exempted from the requirement for professional indemnity. However, they must register with us every year. Even if somebody is not in private practice, the same requirements apply in terms of continuing veterinary education, being bound by the code and having to register with us every year.
