The NSW government has finally given all veterinarians full access to the Companion Animals Register, so that when stray or injured pets are brought in, they can be scanned and owners contacted.
Previously only councils were supposed to scan chips and access the register.
This is excellent news for vets, as typically (and incorrectly), animals are often brought to the vet. After hours, when councils were closed, there was often no way of contacting the owner, if a proper tag was not worn.
