Such certificate will only be issued by the veterinary officer if the cattle (excluding cow, heifer or calf): (i) is over 14 years of age, or (ii) has become permanently incapacitated due to accidental injury or deformity. The Act permits slaughter of cattle only in licensed slaughter houses or other premises as specified in the fit-for-slaughter certificate.
