(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Sheep and Goats (Records, Identification and Movement) Order (Northern Ireland) 2005 (“the 2005 Order”).
Article 3 amends provisions of the 2005 Order on the identification of animals moved to another member State of the European Union.
Article 4 inserts new enforcement provisions into the 2005 Order. Article 24A gives a range of powers to inspectors. New Articles 24B and 24C relate to the giving of reasonable assistance to a person acting under the Order and specifies the information required to be furnished to an inspector in pursuit of this Order.
Article 5 amends paragraph 7 of Schedule 1 to the 2005 Order so that, in the case of an animal moved from a holding to an assembly centre for consignment to another member State, a second eartag must be applied before the animal leaves the holding.
Article 6 and the Schedule substitute Schedule 3 to the 2005 Order, which prescribes the form for recording animal movements. The new form contains a field to record the expected duration of the journey. This is a requirement of Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No. 1/2005 (O. J. L3, 5.1.2005, p.1) on the protection of animals during transport and related operations.
