Abstract

The Order amends the Brucellosis Control Order (Northern Ireland) 2004 by revoking the provisions in Part III of that Order prohibiting the movement of animals into or out of a herd, except directly to a slaughterhouse, unless the animals have been subjected to an official test prior to the date of movement. This Order also revokes the power of the Department Agriculture and Rural Development in Article 20(2) of the 2004 Order to include in licences for draft or dispersal sales a provision requiring that animals in the sales shall have undergone an official test with negative results.
