Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: Dr. Corkery might comment on my question about the stakeholder engagement.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: I asked if it was up and running and if everybody was happy with it. Is it prescription per incident or an annual prescription? Does a person have to contact his or her veterinarian every time he or she needs a prescription?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: But a farmer will have to contact a vet. If a farmer wants to dose his or her cattle today, he or she needs to contact a vet to get a prescription. If a farmer has a sheep with maggots tomorrow and needs antiparasitic boron, he or she needs to contact the vet again. Does a farmer have to get a separate prescription for every transaction?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: That is just one product. What about other antimicrobial products?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: Further to the deliberations, I am seeking clarification on a number of issues that were raised. Deputy Fitzmaurice referred to the proposal of it being allowable for the vet to upload the information up to five days after the dispensing. I am speaking here as a farmer as much as a public representative. Is it the case that if I have an issue at home and I ring my vet, and both of us are...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: While Dr. Corkery is answering, I ask him to clarify the position relating to the scenario I outlined. The vet is busy and is out doing something. How does he write the prescription? Can he ring and get somebody in his office to do the prescription on his computer, somebody who is the equivalent of the responsible person in the merchants?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: Dr. Corkery can understand the issue with the vet having the discretion. Some will do it and some will not. That cannot and will not work.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: When Dr. Corkery says he will take the proposal back, will he take it to Brussels or will he just take it back across the road?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: It was operating.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: Would Dr. Corkery not agree none of that would be necessary if we had a common all-island animal health policy, which we are striving for? If this were part of that, it would not be necessary to do any of that.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: It is minimal.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: I thank the representatives of the Department for their attendance. I will make four or five statements, coupled with questions. Perhaps I will go through them all at once because some of the answers may be interlinked and if we go over and back, we may get bogged down in one issue and I will not cover the others. This regulation was introduced in Europe on 27 January 2019. It is now 6...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: EU Regulation on Veterinary Medicinal Products (Resumed): Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Oct 2021)

Paul Daly: I know but I am quoting the Department's report which states that it has had extensive stakeholder engagement. The decision is down to the eleventh hour and there has not been stakeholder engagement since April. With the greatest of respect to Dr. Corkery, that says a lot.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (30 Sep 2021)

Paul Daly: I wish to be associated with the very eloquent tribute - eloquent as always - that Senator Norris paid to Mervyn Taylor. Go ndéana Dia trócaire ar a anam. It will come as no surprise to anybody here that I wholeheartedly agree with and support Senator Kyne's request and statement. I will not respond to every Senator other than to say in response to Senator Mullen that I just wish...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: General Scheme of the Veterinary Practice (Amendment) Bill 2021: Discussion (28 Sep 2021)

Paul Daly: I will not damage the new-found relationship Deputy Carthy and I have so soon. If it is the committee's belief we should bring in other people, I will go along with that no problem.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: General Scheme of the Veterinary Practice (Amendment) Bill 2021: Discussion (28 Sep 2021)
