Implementing EC requirements, notice must be given to the Divisional Veterinary Manager if any animal, carcass or laboratory sample is found to be infected with enzootic bovine leukosis (arts. 2, 3 and 4). The principal changes made by this Order relate to the arrangements for testing milk for evidence of enzootic bovine leukosis.

The person in charge of an approved laboratory must notify the Minister of any positive test results within 24 hours and negative test results within one month. He must also maintain records of all the tests carried out for a period of one year from the date of the test (art. 5).
