Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
General Scheme of the Veterinary Medicinal Products, Medicated Feed and Fertilisers Regulation Bill 2022: Discussion
Dr. Pat Dillon:
One issue would be the availability of veterinary practitioners within the area to do it. That would be one consideration. Perhaps in areas where farming is not very commercial, there might be an issue with whether there is a local vet who can prescribe antiparasitics in particular. That might be a worry.
