HRH will join delegates to debate spending on welfare charities

Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal will be making an appearance at this year's British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA) Congress.

A patron of BEVA since 2003, the Princess Royal has enduring ties with the equine sector and is linked with many equine and charitable veterinary organisations.

She will join delegates in a "moral maze" style debate at the congress on September 11. The debate will explore whether money spent on welfare charities is well-spent.

David Mountford, BEVA chief executive, said: "We are privileged and flattered the Her Royal Highness has chosen to attend BEVA Congress this year, despite her busy schedule.

"We look forward to welcoming her and hope that she will enjoy participating in what is sure to be a lively debate on the role of equine charities."

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
