To promote and introduce an effective system that can regulate the veterinary profession, either by an independent veterinary body or by the RCVS itself. The system would have the power to take action whereby veterinary surgeons not demonstrating due concern or the skills required to animals in their care can be either:
a) monitored/ retrained/ restricted to offering only certain treatments that they are actually qualified and experienced to perform
or
b) be disciplined by an independent panel made up of members of their own profession and members of the public.
The system would be for the benefit of the consumer and responsible ethical vet practices. We also propose this panel would be able to intercede on behalf of the veterinary profession in relation to complaints against the veterinary surgeons by vexatious pet owners. The system would ensure that when handing over your pet to the vet's practice, both veterinary practice and pet owner would be protected. If needed, both parties would be given access to an independent neutral adjudicator backed by law.
