Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture and Food

Impacts of the Veterinary Medicinal Products, Medicated Feed and Fertilisers Regulation Act 2023: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Conor Geraghty:

According to the merchants, and we met them last year, there are 100 veterinary practices out of that number that are actively selling antiparasitics. A lot of small practices do not bother with this. This is a lot of hassle for small practices as it involves carrying a range of products, keeping them in date, etc.
