Reason for Amendment
The amendment aims to improve consumer access to information and enhance the convenience of checking veterinary costs. To achieve this, it stipulates that veterinary fees must, in principle, be posted within the veterinary clinic, and for clinics operating websites, the fees must also be posted on their respective websites. This change addresses some of the shortcomings identified in the current system
