The Foot-and-Mouth Disease (Amendment) (England) (No. 2) Order 2001
This Order, which extends to England, amends the Foot-and-Mouth Disease Order 1983 (S.I. 1983/1950, as amended) to allow local authorities in districts where foot-and-mouth disease has been confirmed to make regulations prohibiting, for the purpose of preventing the spreading of foot-and-mouth disease, the movement of persons onto any land (including any common, or any unenclosed or waste land) on which there are or may be animals susceptible to foot-and-mouth disease or onto any footpath or right of way in an identified area. In a district where the disease has not been confirmed the local authority may make such regulations after consultation with the Minister.
