The Consumer Protection Act 1987^f3 does not apply in relation to veterinary medicinal products.

The instruments in Part 1 of Schedule 8 are revoked.

The instruments in Part 2 of that Schedule are revoked on 1st January 2006.

The instruments in Part 3 of that Schedule have effect subject to the amendments specified.

Part 4 of that Schedule (transitional provisions) has effect, and the provisions relating to feedingstuffs have effect on 1st January 2006.

For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that the Medicines Act 1968 does not apply in relation to veterinary medicinal products does not prevent the preparation of information on veterinary medicinal products in the British Pharmacopoeia.
