Notification of abortion or premature calvingE+W

10.—(1) Where the owner or person in charge of bovine animals kept on any premises reasonably believes that an abortion or premature calving has occurred, that person must within 24 hours—

(a)give notice of that fact to an officer; and

(b)arrange for the isolation so far as practicable of the animal concerned and its foetus or calf and placenta from all other bovine animals in that person's ownership or charge.

(2) An animal to which the provisions of paragraph (1) above apply must remain in isolation and its foetus or calf and placenta must be retained by the owner or person in charge of the animal, until such time as an officer serves a notice requiring the disposal or destruction of the foetus or calf and placenta.

(3) If any person on whom a notice under paragraph (2) above is served fails to comply with it, the National Assembly may, without prejudice to any proceedings for an offence arising out of such default, carry out or cause to be carried out the requirements of the notice and the expenses reasonably incurred in so doing will be recoverable by the National Assembly from the person in default.
