lpv:spoken text	". I commend the rapporteur for her tremendous work on this vital subject. The common position as drafted presents a major problem for my Member State, Ireland, regarding Article 67 on prescription-only medicines for veterinary purposes. This is why I retabled the relevant amendment from first reading, which we overwhelmingly adopted first time round. It is essential that subsidiarity prevail and that each Member State be free to decide which medicines will require prescriptions. This is the current situation and has proved reliable in terms of protecting public health. My amendment would allow Member States this discretion, while carefully supervising the authorisation of appropriate dispensers of the medicines. It would mean that the merchant-based system of licensing and control in Ireland would be allowed to continue. This system delivers the highest standards of food safety and traceability. But it avoids unnecessary cost and bureaucracy for farmers and animal owners."@en1
