Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when her Department plans to publish a response to the consultation entitled Review of the Veterinary Medicines Regulations 2013, published on 2 February 2023.

My Department has received a significant number of responses from stakeholders to the public consultation on the proposed changes to the Veterinary Medicines Regulations 2013 as applicable in Great Britain. I thank all who have responded for taking the time to consider the proposed changes. My Department has now considered the responses received and a formal response to the consultation is expected to be published by October. This will include a summary of the feedback received to the consultation and set out the actions my Department will take for the proposed changes to the Veterinary Medicines Regulations 2013.
