Monepantel: Northern Ireland

Question for Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

UIN HL1624, tabled on 15 October 2024

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Hayman of Ullock on 16 September (HL753), why Zolvix oral solution for sheep is authorised and labelled on a separate basis in Great Britain and in Northern Ireland.

Zolvix is licensed in accordance with different regulations in Northern Ireland (NI) and Great Britain. Separate licenses have, however, had no impact on the ability to market Zolvix in either NI or the rest of the United Kingdom (UK). The Government aims to facilitate single licensing on a UK-wide basis where possible, supported by changes to the Veterinary Medicines Regulations in 2024.
