Jamus Lim on Veterinary Practice Bill

09:04 Min

The formation of a Veterinary Council is a welcome move in establishing a skilled body to adjudicate cases, especially involving grey areas, said MP Jamus Lim. He sought several clarifications, including whether there are plans for a second-tier peer review of decisions before appeal to the minister, and whether consumer-side advocates - such as animal welfare groups or pet owner association representatives - will be appointed to layperson positions. He spoke in parliament on Wednesday (Apr 8).
