These Regulations enforce Commission Regulation (EC) No. 504/2008 in England. They provide for identification of horses, and replace the Horse Passports (England) Regulations 2004.

Part 2 of the Regulations create offences for breach of provisions of the Commission Regulation, and provide for the administration of veterinary medicinal products for horses intended for human consumption. The Schedule makes special provisions for Dartmoor, Exmoor and the New Forest.

Part 3 provides that the Regulations are enforced by the local authority, and gives powers to inspectors of those authorities.

Breach of the Regulations is an offence punishable—
