All cattle
over 42 days old moving out of a 1- or 2- yearly tested
herd must have tested negative to a TB test within 60
days prior to movement unless the herd or movement meets
any of the exemptions. All pre-movement tests must be
arranged and paid for by the herd owner. However, routine
surveillance tests, paid for by the government will
count as pre-movement tests for 60 days for animals
for animals included in that test, which have tested
negative. These regulations are set out in the TB (Wales)
Order 2006. Click on the link below to view the order. Parish
Testing Each year the SVS advises herd
owners of their new parish testing interval, which
has been established by monitoring the level of
TB in their area in the last 6 years. Parish and herd testing intervals
are the criteria by which herd owners are either
eligible for or exempt from the new requirements
for the pre- and post-movement testing of cattle.
The 2006 Parish Testing Review
has been completed. Compensation The tabular valuation system
was over ruled for Wales and valuation of disease
notified cattle continue to be provided by the
countrys' auctioneers and livestock valuers. | |||||||||||||||
