5

If inspectors enter any unoccupied premises or (where the premises are occupied) the occupier of the premises is temporarily absent, they must leave those premises (so far as reasonably practicable) as effectively secured against unauthorised entry as the inspectors found them.

6

If a justice of the peace, on sworn information in writing, is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for entry into any premises for the purposes of the enforcement of these Regulations, and that—

a

admission has been refused, or a refusal is expected, and (in either case) notice to apply for a warrant has been given to the occupier;

b

asking for admission, or the giving of such a notice, would defeat the object of the entry;

c

the case is one of urgency; or

d

the premises are unoccupied or the occupier is temporarily absent,

the justice may by a signed warrant authorise inspectors to enter the premises, if need be by reasonable force.

7

14Powers of inspectors1

An inspector may—

a

seize any—

i

animal;

ii

body of an animal, part of a body of an animal (including the blood and the hide), semen, embryo or ovum;

iii

animal protein or feedingstuffs that may contain animal protein; or

iv

and dispose of them as necessary;

b

e

inspect any part of the premises, any equipment, facility, operation or procedure;

f

take any samples;

h

have access to, inspect and check the operation of, any computer and any associated apparatus or material that is or has been in use in connection with any record; and for this purpose may require any person having charge of, or otherwise concerned with the operation of, the computer, apparatus or material to afford the inspector such assistance as the inspector may reasonably require (including providing the inspector with any necessary passwords) and, where a record is kept by means of a computer, may require the records to be produced in a form in which they may be taken away;

i

mark anything (including an animal) whether electronically or otherwise, for identification purposes; and

j

lock or seal any container or store.

2

Any person who without reasonable cause defaces, obliterates, or removes any mark or seal, or removes any lock, applied under paragraph (1) is guilty of an offence.

3

An inspector is not personally liable for any act done in the execution or purported execution of these Regulations and within the scope of his or her employment, if the inspector acted in the honest belief that a duty under these Regulations required it or entitled it to be done; but this does not relieve the Scottish Ministers, a local authority or the Food Standards Agency from any liability in respect of the acts of an inspector appointed by them.

10Exceptions1

Where the Scottish Ministers consider that the data to calculate the average price is inadequate, they may pay compensation at—

a

for animals in that category, the most recent previously calculated average price for which there was sufficient data to calculate the average price; or

b

for the individual animal, the market value.

2

For buffalo or bison, compensation is the market value.

3

The market value is the price that might reasonably have been obtained for the individual animal—

a

from a purchaser in the open market;

b

at the time of valuation;

c

on the assumption that the animal was not from a herd affected by a TSE; and

d

calculated in accordance with regulation 11.

4

Failure to comply with this paragraph is an offence.

2Restriction of a notified animal1

When a sheep or goat is the subject of notification under paragraph 1, a veterinary inspector may, pending determination of whether or not it is suspected of having a TSE, serve a notice prohibiting the movement of the animal from its holding and the movement of any other sheep or goat on to or from that holding.

2

Movements of restricted animals are only permitted in accordance with regulation 16.

3Killing of a suspect animal1

For the purposes of Article 12(1) and (2) (measures with respect to suspect animals) of the EU TSE Regulation, if a veterinary inspector suspects that a sheep or goat has a TSE, the inspector must—

The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972

and all other powers enabling them to do so.
</p>
<p>These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for references to the EU instruments referred to in Schedule 1 to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.</p>
<p>
The Scottish Ministers have carried out consultation as required by Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety
