This Order, which applies to Wales, amends the Foot-and-Mouth Disease Order 1983 (S.I. 2001/1950, as amended) by extending the categories of animals within a controlled area (declared by Part IV of that Order) that can be moved to slaughter under licence. The animals that can now be moved include: all cattle, sheep, goats, other ruminating animals and swine (including wild boar).
