Amendment 33 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 9
(9) Medicated feed should be manufactured only with authorised veterinary medicinal products and the compatibility of all compounds used should be ensured for the purpose of safety and efficacy of the product. Additional specific requirements or instructions for the inclusion of the veterinary medicinal products into feed should be foreseen to ensure a safe and efficient treatment of the animals. The inclusion rates set should as a matter of principle be geared to a farm’s average needs. To take account of the specific features of the small-scale farming sector, and in particular to enable small or remote farms to optimise livestock care, it should be permissible to retain established control systems provided it is ensured that the prescription, production and use of medicated feed take place under the instructions and supervision of a veterinarian and are subject to an external process control.
