Proposed veterinary medicinal products regulations will provide for:
- the rules pertaining to prescribing of prescription only medicines, including antiparasitics,
- the operation of the national database - the National Veterinary Prescription System (NVPS)
- the possession, administration and storage of VMPs and medicated feed,
- the licensing of the importation of certain VMPs and medicated feed
- the regulation of retail and internet sales of Veterinary Medicinal Products (VMPs)
Most recently I held a constructive meeting this week with Veterinary Ireland representatives to discuss concerns raised by them in their submission on the draft regulations. The issues raised by them will be considered further.
