Resumen

This Notice sets out rules of conduct and general duties and specific duties of agents involved in livestock trade. "Livestock" means agricultural produce of the kinds specified in Part B of Schedule 1 of the Agricultural Produce Agents Act, 1992. Every livestock agent, other than an employee, must adopt, maintain and implement a conflict of interest management policy that complies with the provisions of these Rules. A livestock agent shall ensure that his employees comply with the laws, regulations and rules applicable to his occupation. A livestock agent must at all times have, and effectively employ such resources, procedures and appropriate technological systems that can reasonably be expected to eliminate as far as reasonably possible, the risk that principals will suffer financial loss or damage through theft, fraud, other dishonest acts, negligence or other culpable omissions. The Rules concern internal control procedures (including registration and marking of livestock) and complaint procedures. Livestock agents shall be certified in accordance with the Act. The Agricultural Produce Agents Council may suspend a livestock agent from conducting business. A livestock agent shall at all times comply with the provisions of the Stock Theft Act, 1959 and the Animal Identification Act, 2002 to the extent that they apply to livestock agents.
