These Regulations amend the Animal By-Products (Enforcement) (Scotland) Regulations 2011 ("the principal Regulations"). Regulation 2 separates the restrictions on access to carcases from regulations 4 and 5 (prohibition on feeding) of the principal Regulations by amending regulation 4, inserting a new heading after regulation 5 and inserting an animal by-product requirement in Schedule 1.
These Regulations also amend instruments in relation to Avian Influenza. Regulation 3 amends the Avian Influenza (H5N1 in Wild Birds) (Scotland) Order 2007 and regulation 4 amends the Avian Influenza (H5N1 in Poultry) (Scotland) Order 2007 to add raw petfood to the list of animal by-products which can be moved under authority of a licence issued by a veterinary inspector.
