Mr. Terence O'Shea:

I will take that question. Both of them will be banned, in the sense that the farmer customer cannot purchase the product without having a valid veterinary prescription, and the retailer cannot sell the product without being presented with a valid veterinary prescription. That is the way it is at the moment for quite a number of products. We touched on it earlier. Almost 300 products already come under that category. As I said, the licensed merchant has been squeezed out of that business for a long number of years in that they do not receive the prescriptions. I will give the Deputy the figure again. The percentage of national sales of those 300 products dispensed by licensed merchants is 0.04%, which is less than half of 1% of the entire sales. Therefore, both the farmer and the supplier would be in breach of the regulation if the product was supplied without a valid veterinary prescription.
