Regulation 7 Movement of cattle born before 28th September 1998
This regulation shall apply to all cattle born before 28th September 1998 which have been issued with movement cards.
The notification of movement (in accordance with the second indent of Article 7.1 of Regulation (EC) No. 1760/2000) in the case of cattle to which this regulation applies shall be–
by the keeper attaching to the movement card of the animal concerned a bar code label identifying the keeper’s holding as provided for that purpose by the Scottish Ministers (or, if that is not practicable, by the keeper writing on the movement card the holding number, the address of the holding and the name of the keeper);
by the keeper indicating on the movement card whether the movement is on or off a holding (or, in the case of a keeper who is a market operator, by that operator indicating on the movement card that the animal has moved through the market);
by the keeper entering the date of the movement on the movement card;
by the keeper signing it; and
by the keeper posting it to the Scottish Ministers within 7 days of the movement.
If an animal to which this regulation applies is transferred to a new keeper, the previous keeper shall give all unused movement cards relating to that animal to the new keeper.
No person shall move cattle on to or off a holding on or after 29th January 2001 unless that person notifies the Scottish Ministers of the movement on a movement card in accordance with paragraph (2) above.
