The slaughter in respect of which certificate is granted must be carried out only at the place specified by the authority. The competent authority shall have the power to enter and inspect any premises if it has reason to believe that an offence under this Act has taken or is likely to take place. The Act exempts application in cases of experimental or research purpose or for public health reasons.
