Registration Open for VPMA Congress!
VPMA urges early registration to avoid missing out on congress.

The Veterinary Practice Management Association (VPMA) is now taking registrations for its 2012 Congress, which will take place at Chesford Grange Hotel, a luxury hotel in Kenilworth, Warwickshire, from the 26th to 28th January 2012.

The Congress already promises to raise the high benchmark set last year, which broke all records and was fully booked. Early registration is accordingly advised for this year to avoid disappointment.

Hailed as Gold Standard management CPD, the event runs across three streams and delegates are free to attend the presentation that best meets their own personal training needs or addresses an issue relevant in their practice.

With an increasing number of overseas delegates attending the event, VPMA Congress can claim to be one of the foremost congresses in the world dedicated to practice management.

To registers and find out more about the Congress, visit the website.

For more information or to apply, email researchgrants@rcvs.org.uk to contact the MMI team.

Germany livestock import ban lifted

The UK government has amended its ban on the import of livestock, meat and dairy products from Germany.

Defra said the decision follows 'rigorous technical assessment' of the measures applied and the current situation. "If the situation changes, we will not hesitate to take necessary action in response to the FMD outbreaks in the European Union to protect our domestic biosecurity," it said.

The ban was implemented in January following an outbreak of foot and mouth disease (FMD) near Berlin. Personal imports of meat, milk and dairy products will remain in place at a country level.
