Disease Control and Animal Movements (Interim Measures) (Scotland) Amendment Order 2002 (S.S.I. No. 221 of 2002).

This Order amends the 20-day standstill on the movement of animals contained in articles 3, 4 and 5 of the principal Order so as to permits the movement of animals to premises if those animals return from slaughterhouses and to permit the movement of animals from premises to shows and exhibitions (under certain restrictions) to places for veterinary treatment or research or to artificial insemination centres. It further permits those animals to be returned to the holding from which they came without applying the standstill to the animals on the holding to which they are returned. It also extends the common grazings exemption in article 4(l) of the principal Order to animals subject to that Order other than sheep, and amends the exemptions for the movement of a camelid and away wintering (article 2(3)(c) and (d)). It brings the movements of pigs within the restrictions of the principal Order and permits the movement of pigs on the same conditions (including separation conditions) as cattle.
