Abstract

These Regulations amend the Cattle Identification (Scotland) Regulations 2007 consequent to amendments made by Regulation (EU) No 653/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EC) No 1760/2000 as regards electronic identification of bovine animals and labelling of beef. These Regulations also, among other things, adjust requirements placed on keepers in the principal Regulations relating to the ear tagging of bovine animals and the passports of bovine animals when they are moved in situations where keepers regularly use a holding in addition to their principal holding, and place a requirement on a keeper of bovine animals to tag the ear of such an animal born on an additional holding; remove various identification documentation requirements.
