We have now moved beyond the end of the veterinary medicines grace period. No significant issues have been reported: medicines supply remains stable. However, we will continue to monitor the situation closely. The Veterinary Medicine Health Situation Scheme and Veterinary Medicines Internal Market Scheme were launched at the beginning of this year to help address any availability issues should they arise.
