Abstract

This Order amends the Foot-and-Mouth Disease (Scotland) Order 2006 by; giving a new definition of “susceptible animal”; and amending paragraph 1 of Schedule 6 (measures that apply in a restricted zone) to the principal Order. The new paragraph provides that a vehicle used to move susceptible animals shall be cleansed or disinfected in accordance with conditions to be applied to the licence authorizing the movement, and any other conditions applied to the movement by a direction by an inspector. The requirements of cleansing and disinfection of vehicles transporting susceptible animals of the principal Order no longer apply to movements in a restricted zone. A movement restriction will also not apply in any part of a restricted zone that is also part of a surveillance zone.
