Veterinary Practice Bill 2004: Committee Stage.
7:00 pm
Michael McCarthy (Labour)
I thank the Minister but there are other reasons this amendment might be accepted. If there is a requirement to import expertise, this has a host of industrial relations implications. How many practitioners will be available? What will be the rate of remuneration? Consider the manner in which the retail market is being exploited by foreign companies. Accepting the Minister's response, I ask her to keep an open mind on this amendment for other reasons on Report Stage.
