Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture and Food

Impacts of the Veterinary Medicinal Products, Medicated Feed and Fertilisers Regulation Act 2023: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Conor Geraghty:

I hope it will work because we have spent a lot of money on it. Ultimately, we are using the system. The system is working and is collecting the data. We would have much preferred if the Department collected from the farmers as was designed in the regulation. It was foisted on us. There is considerable extra work involved in it. The NVPS allows for real time prescribing which we were using anyway before that, but it needed to be integrated into the Department's system.
