Feargal Quinn (Independent)

I deserve to be confused when I come to the Chamber. I refer to the submission on the Bill from Veterinary Ireland which states:

Minister Coughlan's stated intention here is to provide "for non-qualified persons to carry out a very limited range of procedures." The legislation as drafted however goes much further — covering specific matters such as non-qualified persons "administering an anaesthetic to an animal," even though anaesthetics are classified as veterinary surgeons only, VSO, under animal remedies legislation.

I am not sure I understand the change made by the Minister. Will she put my mind at rest?
