what they see as <strong>inaction on the part of the veterinary services regarding the operation of illegal livestock farms<\/strong> on protected land.<br \/>\nIts upset at the state of affairs was registered in its report into the agriculture ministry and affiliated departments, which was released on Monday.<br \/>\nThe report centred on one \u201clarge livestock unit\u201d, consisting of a warehouse and a residential property, which is located on a farm built on church land in the Paphos village of Ayios Ioannis.<br \/>\nThe report said <strong>the farm is not registered, has not secured any relevant permits, and is located in the Chanoutaris Cliffs<\/strong> special protection zone, which lies adjacent to the Paphos forest and the Cedar Valley Natura 2000 area.<br \/>\nThey said they had filed two complaints on the matter in previous special reports, penned in March 2022 and December 2022 respectively, but that \u201cthe illegal livestock estates still exist and operate, years after they were pointed out.\u201d<br \/>\nIn this regard, the service raised questions over violations of laws pertaining to the registration, marking and monitoring of Cyprus\u2019 animal population, given the fact that none of this could possibly have happened on an illegal and unregistered farm.<br \/>\nThey also raised questions regarding the fate of the products produced, given that a farm of the size reported would likely produce large quantities of milk or meat, and the consequences that <strong>the dissemination into society of unchecked milk or meat<\/strong> may have for public health.<br \/>\nThey said that over a year ago, they had pointed out the government\u2019s \u201cinadequate handling\u201d of the case to then-Agriculture Minister Petros Xenophontos, but that no action has yet been taken by central government or by Paphos\u2019 district authorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Audit Office criticized the veterinary
