1. Your request
For the years 2023, 2024 and 2025: what monies were received by the VMD from Veterinary Drug Companies themselves and those sums by manufacturer.
2. Our reply
The VMD publishes details of income received from veterinary pharmaceutical companies in our Annual Report and Accounts (ARA). This includes a breakdown of income categories and the associated amounts received each financial year. The information relevant to your request can be found in the “Financial Statements” section of each report, where industry income is itemised.
You can access the published ARAs on GOV.UK here:
