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:

I meet lots of them. As I said earlier, some of them are on our antimicrobial stakeholder group and some of them are the owners of the businesses., the small businesses. I have definitely met many of them in the recent past. We know that many of them attend the meetings because they have done the course. It is not a course that one must update every year. It is a course one did once upon a time for many of the guys. They have reached the requirement and they know what they are doing. They are very knowledgeable and they give a great deal of good advice to farmers. They will continue to do so.
