Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Dr. Paul Corkery:

The basis for all of this is the report of the HPRA into the effectiveness of antiparasitic veterinary medicinal products. Some of them are not effective. It is no one's fault - it is evolution, it is nature. Every beast, every living cell, tries to continue living, tries to outdo the medicines meant to kill it. It is evading the medicines.
