1) The Veterinary Medicines Directive (VMD) and National Office of Animal Health (NOAH) both play significant roles in the farm animal health industry and usually they successfully work alongside each other. Over the last two years they have had a disagreement over proposals to ban advertising of antimicrobials and other prescription-only medicines to professional keepers and owners of animals, a legislation that is now due to come into effect from October 2013 so that the UK fall in line with current legislations in the EU.

a. Discuss and explore the roles of both these organisations in the farm animal health industry (14 marks)

b. Evaluate the need for the recent changes to legislation with regards to advertising of antimicrobials to professional keepers of animals and the stances taken by both NOAH and the VMD in the recent disagreement.
