Guidance updated March 2011

Summary

Intended audience
This guidance is applicable to:

Regional coverage
Wales only. Parallel guidance applies in other parts of the UK.

Legal status
This guidance is intended to accompany relevant EU and national legislation relating to TSEs and meat hygiene.

Purpose
To provide information on the law covering the home slaughter of livestock.

Endnotes

1 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 and pigs.
Ni fwriadwyd i’r arweiniad hwn ymdrin â phob rhywogaeth o dda byw ond mae yn ymdrin â’r rhywogaethau hynny yr ydym yn derbyn ymholiadau amdanynt fwyaf ac felly mae’n hynod berthnasol i’r canlynol: gwartheg, defaid a geifr lle mae rheolaethau TSE yn berthnasol a moch.

2 For the purposes of this guide, ‘farm’ is defined as any premises where livestock are kept.
At ddibenion yr arweiniad hwn, diffinnir ‘fferm’ fel unrhyw safle lle cedwir da byw.
