Paragraph 2 Wholesale supply of veterinary medicinal productsE1

Only a holder F1... of a manufacturing authorisation or the holder of a wholesale dealer’s authorisation granted by the Secretary of State may supply a veterinary medicinal product wholesale, or be in possession of it for that purpose.

A person mentioned in sub-paragraph (1) may only supply a veterinary medicinal product if—

If the supply is to a veterinary surgeon, a pharmacist or a suitably qualified person, it must be to premises registered (or authorised as the case may be) in accordance with paragraph 8(1), paragraph 10(1) or paragraph 14(4).

It is immaterial whether or not the supply is for profit.

This paragraph does not apply in relation to a retailer of veterinary medicinal products who supplies another retailer with such products for the purpose of alleviating a temporary supply shortage that could be detrimental to animal welfare.

A wholesale dealer may break open any package (other than the immediate packaging) of a veterinary medicinal product.
