Resumen

This Order provides for the control in Northern Ireland of the BSE disease and brings the disease within the application sphere of the Diseases of Animals (Northern Ireland) Order 1981 (art. 3). Article 1 gives a list of definitions. With respect to the 1997 Order, the definition of "mammalian meat and bone meal" in Article 2 is amended. Article 4 concerns notifications of existence of affected or suspected animals by owners, whereas article 5 provides for official veterinary inquiries. The requirement that BSE must have been present or suspected to have been present on any premises within the previous 56 days before a veterinary inquiry can be carried out under Article 5(1) has now been removed. The powers under Article 7(1) to restrict the movement of certain bovine animals are extended to apply where there is risk of the animal being exposed to BSE through a feedingstuffs. Part III concerns controls on protein in milk, feeding stuff, etc.
