Draft Codes


Codes of Recommendations for the Welfare of Livestock: Animal Health and Biosecurity (SE/2002/273)

The Convener:

The codes reflect the recommendations of a number of reports on infectious diseases in livestock and lessons learned from the recent foot-and-mouth outbreak. The codes are intended to promote heightened animal disease surveillance and biosecurity measures on farms. This is the stuff of good administration.

It is.

There are a number of typos, which of course cannot pass without comment. The Executive might be good at keeping bugs off the farm, but can it spell?

There is also a missing reference in annexe A.

Is it a possible or a definite missing reference? We do not know. We had better query the Executive about it.
