20.—(1) In the case of a product, if the checks at a border inspection post show that the consignment does not satisfy the conditions in the instrument in Schedule 1 relating to that product, or where such checks reveal an irregularity, the official veterinary surgeon, after consultation with the person responsible for the consignment, must—
(a)permit the use of the consignment as animal by-products in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1069/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down health rules as regards animal by-products and derived products not intended for human consumption(1) provided there is no risk to human or animal health;

(c)if the person responsible for the consignment gives immediate agreement, redispatch is impossible or the 60-day time limit has elapsed, destroy the products.
