Abstract

These Regulations implement in Northern Ireland certain changes in the restrictions on imports and exports of certain animals and animal products in accordance with Commission Decision 2001/356/EC concerning certain protection measures with regard to foot-and-mouth disease in the United Kingdom and repealing Commission Decision 2001/172/EC. The principal change is to the conditions under which mince meat and meat preparations may be exported. The Regulations continue to control the export of biungulates, fresh meat, meat products, milk, milk products and other animal products. They contain powers of inspectors, and provisions relating to illegal consignments. Breach of the Regulations is an offence for which penalties are prescribed under regulation 22.
