Summary
This information is for:
- Keepers of animals who slaughter livestock on farm for their own consumption or that of members of their household living there.
- Local Authorities which are responsible for the enforcement of Animal Welfare, Food Hygiene and Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE) Regulations on farms.
Notes
-
The Guide is not intended to cover all livestock species but it does cover those species for which we receive most enquiries and is therefore particularly applicable to the following: cattle, sheep and goats where TSE controls apply.
-
For the purposes of this guide, ‘farm’ is defined as any premises where livestock is kept.
