Abstract

These Regulations continue the restrictions contained in the Export Restrictions (Foot-and-Mouth Disease) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/498) within Scotland, and amend these restrictions in accordance with Commission Decision 2001/172/EC of 1 March 2001 concerning certain protection measures with regard to foot-and-mouth disease in the United Kingdom and repealing Decision 2001/145/EC. It further provides for endorsement of commercial documents, illegal consignments, and offences by bodies corporate. Where an inspector knows or suspects that animals or animal products are intended for export to another member State and do not comply with the requirements of these Regulations that inspector may by notice served on the person in charge of those animals or products require that person at his own expense to carry out specified measures.
