Abstract

These Regulations make provision for the enforcement in Scotland of Annex VII (other than paragraphs 1(a) and 2(a)) to Regulation (EC) No. 999/2001 as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1915/2003.They add a new Schedule 6A to the principal Regulations. That Schedule provides that the Scottish Ministers are the competent authority for the purposes of Annex VII to the Community TSE Regulation (paragraph 1 of the Schedule). They make provision for notifications to be given and procedures to be followed on confirmation of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in sheep and goats (paragraphs 2 to 7). These include an offence of failure to transmit a notice served on a holding to a new occupier of the holding (paragraph 8). Part II of the Schedule regulates the movement of sheep and goats following notification under Part I (paragraphs 9 to 13) and provides for potential derogations specified in Annex VII to the Community TSE Regulation (paragraph 14). Part III provides a procedure for review of notices served under the Schedule. Part IV specifies compensation for animals, embryos and ova destroyed in accordance with the Schedule.
