Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order, which extends to Scotland only, establishes the system for ascertaining the value of animals slaughtered because of foot-and-mouth disease.

It revokes and remakes the Foot and Mouth Disease (Ascertainment of Value) (Scotland) Order 2001 principally with amendments to the Schedule to provide a value for cull cattle.

A Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been prepared.
