Explanatory note

Reproduced verbatim from the instrument as published on legislation.gov.uk (Crown Copyright, Open Government Licence v3.0). The note is prepared by the responsible government department and is not part of the instrument itself.

This Order amends the Specified Animal Pathogens (Wales) Order 2008 ( S.I. 2008/1270 (W.129) ) to add a further pathogen (Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus genotype 2) to the Part 1 list in Schedule 1. The power to seize this specified pathogen will not apply as the resulting disease is not one that is covered by a slaughter requirement under the Animal Health Act 1981.

This Order has been notified in draft to the European Commission in accordance with Directive 98/34/ EC (provision of information in the field of technical standards), as amended by Directive 98/48/EC .
