The Brucellosis (England and Wales) (Amendment) Order 1994
This Order further amends the Brucellosis (England and Wales) Order 1981 by inserting provisions requiring the sampling and sending of milk to the animal health laboratory of Genus Ltd. so that it can be tested for evidence of the existence of brucellosis. It implements those provisions of Council Directive 64/432/EEC (OJ No. L121, 29.7.64, p. 1977), as amended (on animal health problems affecting intra–Community trade in bovine animals and swine) and Council Directive 77/391/EEC (OJ No. L145, 13.6.77, p. 44). as amended, (introducing Community measures for the eradication of brucellosis, tuberculosis and leucosis in cattle), which require the operation of a monitoring and testing programme for the maintenance of the officially brucellosis-free status achieved in England and Wales under those Directives.
