Abstract

This Order requires a person who has under his or her control an animal, carcase, product, semen or embryo of an animal, which is affected, or which he or she suspects to be affected with a disease listed in the First Schedule to this Order, to notify that fact or suspicion to specified authorities. This duty is also extended to a registered veterinary practitioner who examines an animal or specified animal product. The Order also provides for the control of listed diseases by making the movement of notified animals or products subject to a licence of an authorized officer, by giving powers to inspectors to issue restriction notices and by requiring holders of animals to comply with such notices. The Order does not apply to animal diseases (e.g. bovine tuberculosis, brucellosis, foot and mouth disease) that are subject to specific control rules.
