DISCUSSION
DISCUSSION
• Compliance of the VSBs with OIE standards is low (43%)
• Annual budgets may vary from USD 75 – 800,000 (independence ?)
• Line Ministries play a passive to active role (independence ?)
• Compliance of the VSBs with OIE standards is low (43%)
• Annual budgets may vary from USD 75 – 800,000 (independence ?)
• Line Ministries play a passive to active role (independence ?)
• Countries with no VSB : delays in adopting legislation
• Little cross-border or regional cooperation or harminisation
IN CONCLUSION
IN CONCLUSION• Scarcity of resources,• Veterinary profession largely
dominated by the public services
• Low awareness of stakeholders
Functional VSB’s require the rule of law, democracy and the strict separa-tion of the three powers of the State.
IN CONCLUSION• Continue raising general
awareness of requirements for good governan-ce of the veterinary services,
• Establish VSB’s in countries that have not yet done so,
• Improve compliance with OIE standards in other countries
• Improve linkages between VSBs and VEEs in order to strengthen the grip of VSBs on the supply and demand.
IN CONCLUSION• Regional coordination and
harmonisation is critical• Continental oversight ? • Learn from what VEEs are
doing• Engage in twinning of VSBs
