SCHEDULE 2CALCULATION OF ENHANCEMENT OF COMPENSATION

1.—(1) For bovine animals not in a closed herd, where the Minister causes 10 per cent or more of the herd to be slaughtered as exposed animals, the amount of compensation payable under article 4(1)(a) or (b) of this Order shall, subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) below, be enhanced by (10+E) per cent, where E equals half the percentage by which the percentage of the herd caused to be slaughtered exceeds 10 per cent.

(2) Where the amount of compensation payable for a bovine animal under article 4(1)(a) or (b) of this Order exceeds £1,000, that amount shall be treated as £1,000 for the purpose of calculating under sub-paragraph (1) above the amount by which the amount of compensation payable should be enhanced.

(3) Where the calculation in sub-paragraph (1) above produces an enhancement percentage in excess of 25 per cent, the amount of compensation payable shall be enhanced by 25 per cent.

2.  For bovine animals in a closed herd, where the Minister causes 10 per cent or more of the herd to be slaughtered as exposed animals, the amount of compensation payable under article 4(1)(a) or (b) of this Order shall be enhanced by a percentage that is 1½ times the enhancement percentage produced by the calculation in paragraph 1 above.
