Abstract

This Order, which extends to Scotland only, principally imposes restrictions on the movement of cattle, sheep, goats and other ruminating animals, swine and elephants in Scotland. It requires that any such movement from premises must be permitted by a specific or general licence issued by the Scottish Ministers and further requires that no animal was moved onto those premises during the period of 20 days before such movement, except where movements are exempted from that requirement under articles 3(2), 4 and 5. The Order also requires that market premises should not be used for that purpose except in compliance with the requirements in Schedule 2 (art. 6). Shows or exhibitions must be notified to the Divisional Veterinary Manager prior to the holding of a show or exhibition, shows shall comply with any guidance issued by the Divisional Veterinary Manager (art. 7). The Scottish Ministers may vary, suspend or revoke licences at any time. The Regulations amends the Pigs (Records, Identification and Movement) Order 1995 to specify the from of identification to be used in the case of a movement of a pig to a show or for breeding purposes, reduces the period within which the person in charge of a collecting centre must notify pig movements to the local authority to 3 days, alters the declarations contained in Schedules to that Order to require a similar period and requires the local authority to intimate pig movements to the Scottish Ministers (art. 11).
