Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

If a veterinary inspector has reasonable grounds for supposing that the movement of any pig, pig carcase, or other thing to or from any premises would give rise to the risk of the spread of the disease he may, for the purpose of preventing the spread of the disease, by notice served on the occupier of the premises, prohibit the movement of any pig, pig carcase, or other thing to or from the premises, except under the authority of a licence granted by an inspector of the Ministry.
