Paragraph 1 Restriction on movements pending results of TSE testing

If a bovine animal is the subject of a notification under regulation 5 an inspector may serve a notice on the animal owner prohibiting its movement from the holding pending determination of whether or not it is suspected of being infected with a TSE.

If test results confirm that no animal on a holding is infected with a TSE the inspector must remove all restrictions by notification to the animal owner and return any retained cattle passports.
