Abstract

These Regulations implement in England the provisions of Council Regulation (EC) No. 1760/2000 in relation to older cattle. They require cattle born before 1 July 1996, when the first cattle passports were issued, which are not already registered with the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food on a voluntary basis to be registered before 29 January 2001 (reg. 5). They require the location of all cattle with passports without movement cards not already registered with the Minister to be notified (reg. 6). They provide for the issue of movement cards to cattle born before 28 September 1998, the date that the passports with movement cards were first issued, and require notification to the Minister when these animals are moved. They also provide for the use of electronic notification of movement as an alternative to notification using movement cards, and for a register of approved users of electronic notification (regs. 7 and 8). They make provision for the notification of the death of cattle born before 1 July 1996 (reg. 9). They make provision for powers of inspectors (reg. 10) and provide for an officer of the Minister to impose movement restrictions for cattle to which the Regulations relate (reg. 11). They make provision for obstruction of inspectors (reg. 12) and for bodies corporate (reg. 13). Failure to comply with the Regulations is an offence punishable as specified in regulation 14.
