Abstract
These Regulations carry into effect Community legislation on intra-Community trade in live animals and products and importation of animals and products from third countries and relative veterinary checks. They establish a system for trade between member States in live animals and genetic material and for the importation of live animals and products of animal origin (which includes genetic material) from outside the European Union. The Scottish Ministers are empowered to prohibit importation into Scotland of any animal or product in the event of a disease outbreak outside the United Kingdom.
