Paragraph 5 Movement of things liable to spread disease
England, Wales and Scotland
Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, no person shall move from the premises any meat, carcase, meat product, milk, milk product, semen, ovum or embryo of a susceptible animal.
Where the Secretary of State is satisfied that it is not reasonable to require milk to be kept on the premises, she may—
serve a notice requiring that milk is destroyed on the premises; or
grant a licence authorising milk to be transported from the premises to the nearest place available for disposal or treatment to destroy disease.
Transport of milk under the authority of a licence granted under sub-paragraph (2)(b) shall be carried out in a vehicle which an inspector has approved as equipped to ensure that there is no risk of spreading disease.
If the Secretary of State grants a licence under sub-paragraph (2)(b), she shall serve a notice on the person in charge of the premises to which milk is transported directing the method of disposal or treatment.
