Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order revokes the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (No. 10) Order 1986 (which contained a prohibition on the slaughter of certain sheep following the escape of radioactive substances from a nuclear reactor situated at Chernobyl, in the Ukraine, USSR). In consequence the prohibition which applied throughout the United Kingdom on the slaughter, for human consumption or for use in the preparation of feeding stuffs, of sheep which had been moved from the designated areas described in column 1 of Schedule 2 to that Order, between the dates specified in column 2 of that Schedule no longer applies.
