Pigs (Records, Identification and Movement) (Scotland) Amendment Order 2002 (S.S.I. No. 540 of 2002).

The Order amends the principal Order by providing revised versions of the declarations to accompany movements of pigs in accordance with article 9 of and Schedule 2 to, and article 11 of and Schedule 6 to, the principal Order, so that such declarations must be sent to the appropriate local authority even if the pigs are being moved for immediate slaughter. The Order revokes article 10 of and Schedule 5 to the principal Order dealing with movement of pigs from waste food premises. The Order also makes revisals to the movement licence issued in accordance with article 12 of and Schedule 7 to the principal Order so that the licence must be countersigned by the licensee and sent to the local authority within 3 days of the movement.
