I want to go back to the Veterinary Council and the corporate ownership of practices. Where is that at? Mr. Neary said there is no corporate governance at present. What does the Veterinary Council do? It was stated that a huge number of practices are under negotiation for sale and four have gone through. Will Veterinary Ireland propose that legislation should be changed? Where does it stand with regard to the Veterinary Council?
