(1) The value of a bovine animal slaughtered for tuberculosis is to be calculated using the following formula—\nIf SV≤( M×MV ) then C=( M×MV ) , otherwise C=SV\nWhere—\nSV is the salvage value of the animal;\nM is the figure provided by paragraphs 3 to 9;\nMV is the market value of the animal established in accordance with paragraph 2; and\nC is the value of the animal for the purposes of article 26 and cannot be more than £15,000 and cannot be less than £1.\n(2) Paragraphs 3 to 9 will apply where the Welsh Ministers are satisfied on a balance of probabilities that there has been a breach of this Order.\nMarket value\n2. (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of article 3 of the Diseases of Animals (Ascertainment of Compensation) Order 1959, the market value of a bovine animal which the Welsh Ministers cause to be slaughtered must be determined—\n(a) by a valuer appointed by the Welsh Ministers; or\n(b) failing such appointment, by a valuer named on a list maintained by the Welsh Ministers, nominated by the President of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors or the President of the Central Association of Agricultural Valuers as the Welsh Ministers may decide in any particular case or class of case.\n(2) A valuer appointed or nominated under sub-paragraph (1)(a) or (1)(b) must be paid by the Welsh Ministers and must inform, in writing, the Welsh Ministers and the owner of the market value.\n(3) In this paragraph a reference to a valuer is a reference to an individual and not to a company or firm or to two or more persons jointly.\n(4) For the purposes of this paragraph, the market value of an animal is the price that might reasonably be expected would have been obtained for it from a purchaser in the open market at the time of valuation if the animal were not an affected animal or a suspected animal.\nFailure to comply with a notice\n3.
