<p>The Government has robust plans in place to ensure the highest standards of regulation
in the event of a ‘no deal’. We are working with the animal medicines industry to
ensure that supplies of veterinary medicines remain available in the event of the
UK leaving the EU without a deal.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>There is an existing
scheme where vets can apply to import veterinary medicines authorised in another country,
including EU Member States. This scheme will remain in the event of a no-deal situation.</p><p>
</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>In future, veterinary medicines authorised by the European
Commission (centrally authorised) will not automatically be valid in the UK if we
leave the EU without a deal. However, The Government will bring forward secondary
legislation to convert all existing centrally authorised products into nationally
authorised products on the day we leave the EU. This means that the products can remain
on the market for sale and supply in their existing packaging.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>
