Have your say

The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) is intending, under section 29 of the ACVM Act 1997, to reassess the conditions of registration applied to all registered vertebrate toxic agents (VTAs). This will be performed sequentially according to the active ingredient, starting with the anti-coagulants and, most immediately, brodifacoum. 

MPI has held 2 previous rounds of consultation, the first of which was targeted to industry and the second was a public consultation held in April 2021. These have provided useful feedback on proposed changes to the regulatory controls which were considered as part of this final consultation on the proposed new controls.

First public consultation: Changes to the conditions of registration of products containing brodifacoum

As the proposed reassessment of all registered VTA products containing the active ingredient brodifacoum could impact on a wide range of stakeholders, MPI is seeking feedback from all interested parties on the proposed new controls for the manufacture, sale, storage, and use of brodifacoum as a VTA in New Zealand.

We welcome your comments about the proposals and how they will impact the use of these products (as outlined in the discussion document).
