Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
New School of Veterinary Medicine: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Liam Moriarty:
I will answer that question. We see UL as the speediest option and the most likely. We would welcome more than one university carrying a veterinary degree but the problem exists now. There is a crisis now. Those 20% to 22% of practitioners who are over 60 years old now, in 2030 they are likely not going to be working in practice.
