Paragraph 25 Compensation for milk or milk products compulsorily destroyed in accordance with paragraph 8

The Department must pay compensation in accordance with this paragraph for milk or milk products destroyed pursuant to paragraph 8.

The compensation payable is that which the Department believes might reasonably have been obtained for the milk or milk products on the open market had it not been compulsorily destroyed and had not been milk derived from a flock or herd affected by TSE.

If the owner of the milk or milk products considers the compensation to be unreasonable a valuation must be carried out in accordance with the procedure laid down in regulation 12(3) to (8) with the owner paying any valuation fee arising.
