The relevant types of animal are cattle (if born on or after 1st August 1996), sheep, other ruminating animals or swine. Directions may also be given in relation to ash or rendered material resulting from the burning or rendering of the carcasses or parts of carcasses of cattle (of any age), sheep, other ruminating animals or swine where such animals have been slaughtered as a result of the containment measures.
