まずは読んでみよう
The UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is looking into the veterinary sector because of concerns about high costs for pet owners. They started investigating after getting feedback from 56,000 people about issues like high prices and lack of clear cost information. The veterinary market, worth around £5.7 billion, is mostly controlled by a few big companies, which might be making profits too high. The CMA is checking if rules need to be updated and if actions like setting maximum fees should be taken. They also noted problems like pet owners treating veterinary staff badly because of the high fees. The British Veterinary Association wants better rules and more clarity on costs.
