Abstract These Regulations amend references in the Fresh Meat (Beef Controls) (No. 2) Regulations 1996 to "meat and bone meal" to read "mammalian meat and bone meal" and alter two of the conditions of eligibility and one of the conditions of continued membership of the Beef Assurance Scheme. The condition of eligibility that the herd must have been in existence for four years prior to registration is disapplied where the herd in question is composed entirely of animals which come from herds already registered under the Scheme. The condition of eligibility that, over the four year period prior to application for membership of the scheme, no animal in the herd shall have been fed compound feed from a feed mill not solely producing feed for ruminants is replaced by a new requirement that any compound feed so fed must have come from a mill which has not during the four years prior to application used mammalian meat and bone meal. The condition of continued membership that no animal in the herd shall be fed any compound feed from a mill not solely producing feed for ruminants is replaced by the requirement that no animal in the herd may be fed feed or compound feed which contains mammalian meat and bone meal.
