Abstract

The Order amends the Brucellosis Control Order (Northern Ireland) 2004 in articles 5 and 20 by increasing the age threshold for pre-movement testing from 12 to 24 months, and extending the window for a single movement from 30 to 60 days. “Pre-movement test” means in the case of any animal an official test carried out in accordance with Annex C of Council Directive 64/432/EEC on animal health problems affecting intra-Community trade in bovine animals and swine by a laboratory approved by the Department for those purposes on a sample taken from it.
