[Collaboration between official veterinarians, private veterinarians and livestock producer organisations].
In order to guarantee that only healthy animals and safe animal products are placed on the market, official veterinarians, private veterinarians and livestock producer organisations must work together within a single structure that reports to a single centralised authority. Each party must participate in developing and implementing programmes, in financing these programmes and in taking responsibility for the results (joint decision-making, joint financing, joint accountability). The author describes how this mode of collaboration and integration between the three parties operates, and explains their duties and obligations.
