This Order prohibits the landing in Great Britain of any processed animal protein or any product containing processed animal protein from a place outside Great Britain, except under the authority of a licence issued by the appropriate Agriculture Minister and in accordance with the conditions of that licence.
The Order contains powers for requiring any processed animal protein or any product containing processed animal protein which has been landed in contravention of the Order, or in breach of any licence conditions, to be exported or destroyed or treated, without compensation. The Order also contains powers for the seizure of any such processed animal protein or any such product containing processed animal protein in order that this may be effected.
The Order makes the intentional contravention of certain provisions of the Order an indictable offence. A person convicted on indictment is liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to an unlimited fine or both.
