(f)mark any equine animal or other thing for identification purposes,

(6) An inspector entering onto land or premises by virtue of this regulation may be accompanied by such other person as the inspector considers necessary.
(7) A person accompanying an inspector may also exercise any of the powers conferred on an inspector by virtue of paragraph (5).
(8) If the inspector, or an accompanying person, causes damage in exercising the powers in this regulation, the local authority (or, as the case may be, the Scottish Ministers) must—

(b)if it is not possible to remedy the damage, pay compensation for it.
(9) An inspector who enters any unoccupied premises must leave them as effectively secured as they were before those premises were entered.
