The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has launched a new online contact form, which will become the primary means of contacting the organisation for queries and concerns regarding animal medicines and products. This change aims to improve communication between the VMD and stakeholders, including animal health professionals and the general public.
According to the VMD, the new contact form is designed to be user-friendly and accessible, allowing individuals to easily report concerns or queries about animal medicines and products. The form will replace existing methods of contact, including email and phone.
The VMD is responsible for ensuring the safe use of animal medicines and products in the UK. The organisation works closely with animal health professionals, industry stakeholders, and regulatory bodies to enforce animal health laws and regulations.
In response to the launch of the new contact form, the Shadow Minister for Animal Welfare, Jim Fitzpatrick, stated, 'The VMD plays a crucial role in protecting animal welfare and public health. This new contact form should make it easier for people to report concerns or queries about animal medicines and products.'
The introduction of the new contact form is part of the VMD's ongoing efforts to improve its services and communication with stakeholders. The organisation will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the new contact form, making any necessary adjustments to ensure it meets the needs of its users.
