Richard Stephenson's Council notes published
Richard Stephenson, a longstanding member of RCVS Council, has made his notes of the last Council meeting, which took place on Thursday 1st November, available for the veterinary profession to read.
Mr Stephenson is keen to stress that his notes are not intended as an unbiased minute of the meeting, and that they "are my personal observations and no doubt emphasise those issues which interest me."
The latest Council meeting was the first with new RCVS CEO Nick Stace present, and he has already made a favourable impression on the veterinary profession with his determination to drive reform at the College. This good start seems to have extended to Council as well, with Mr Stephenson writing "most of what he said was music to my ears."
Other issues discussed include the budget, the ownership of Belgravia House, and Council and Committee matters.

Veterinary practices are being urged to help owners safely dispose of any unused and expired pet medicines - not just antibiotics - during November's Animal Medicines Amnesty.
