Theprovisions of those texts are compared through cross-reading texts to other areaswith which the veterinary profession shares powers.On the one hand, it is clear differences in form and substance in relation to the OIEguidelines, and some regulations of the UEMOA have not been implemented,particularly the regulations on veterinary pharmacy. On the other hand, someprovisions of these texts are difficult to be applicable in the present context,particularly as regards public health veterinarian.Moreover, a lack of harmonization between the veterinary texts and some texts ofother areas (plant and sanitation) is found.Any time a reading of these texts with implementation of some measures proposedcan improve their compliance on an international level, especially when it isaccompanied by training officers in legislative drafting and broad dissemination oftexts from different actors of the veterinary profession.Keywords: Legal Texts, veterinary profession, conformity, UEMOA, OIE, Republic ofMali.Address: Department of Livestock and Animals Industries, Republic of Nigerahmadousfr@yahoo.frviii
