Animal Health Ireland (AHI) are currently exploring the introduction of an Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) eradication programme. This is in line with a number of European countries who have established programmes which allows them to seek guarantees in relation to the IBR status of animals imported into their territories. I welcome this initiative by AHI.
