	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/10/2019 answer text <p>The Government agrees with the British Veterinary Association (BVA) that it is good practice for veterinary practices to scan dogs that are presented to them and particularly at the first appointment. However, the Government supports BVA’s position that vets should not be legally required to do so, due to the impact it could have on the vet-owner relationship. On 23 April 2019, the BVA met campaigners to discuss this issue. The BVA undertook to remind veterinary practices to scan dogs in line with best practice and help owners understand the importance of keeping their microchipping records up to date.</p> answering member constituency Richmond Park answering member printed Zac Goldsmith question first answered 07/10/2019 13:13:35 answering member 4062 label Biography information for Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park
