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:

If a private veterinary practitioner prescribed antibiotics under the previous regulations from 2007 to 2022 without having visited the farm or having a relationship, it would be an offence. Vets were prosecuted and struck off from the Veterinary Council, one in the Cathaoirleach's neck of the woods, as far as I know.
