# The Enzootic Bovine Leukosis Order 1997, Article 7: Powers of veterinary inspectors to prohibit or control movement of bovine animals


If a veterinary inspector has reasonable grounds for believing that the movement of any bovine animal from any place may give rise to the risk of enzootic bovine leukosis being spread he may, for the purpose of preventing the spreading of that disease, serve a notice on the owner or occupier of that place or the owner or person in charge of the bovine animal, prohibiting the movement thereof, requiring physical separation from other bovine animals on the premises or imposing such conditions in respect of its movement as he may consider expedient.
