(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order revokes and re-enacts the provisions of the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (No.2) Order 1987, as amended.
This Order continues the emergency prohibitions imposed by that Order restricting various activities in order to prevent human consumption of food rendered unsuitable for that purpose in consequence of the escape in April 1986 of radioactive substances from a nuclear reactor situated at Chernobyl in the Ukraine, USSR.
The Order designates again areas in Scotland affected by the escape from which the movement of sheep and in which the slaughter of sheep are prohibited (articles 3, 4(1) and 5(1) and the Schedule). Restrictions on the slaughter of sheep from the designated areas, and the supply of meat derived from such sheep, extend throughout the United Kingdom (article 6(1)).
The Order continues the following exceptions to the prohibitions referred to in articles 4, 5 and 6:-
(a)an exception from the said prohibition on slaughter in any of the designated areas in respect of-
(i)any sheep which was moved from any place in accordance with a consent given under section 2(1) of the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985 which consent was subject to the condition that the sheep to which it applies should be marked with an apricot paint mark (article 4(2)(a));
(ii)any sheep which was moved from any place in accordance with a consent given under section 2(1) of the said Act which consent was subject to the condition that the sheep to which it applies should be marked with a green paint mark or, after 28th September 1987 with a blue paint mark and which in either case has been examined and marked with an ear-tag by a person authorised by the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, the Secretary of State for Scotland or Wales, or the Department of Agriculture for Northern Ireland (article 4(2)(b));
(b)an exception from the said prohibition on movement in respect of any sheep which-
(i)was moved in accordance with a consent given under section 2(1) of the said Act which consent was subject to the condition that the sheep to which it applies should be marked with an apricot paint mark or with a green paint mark (article 5(2)(a)and (b));
(ii)was moved in accordance with a consent given on or after 28th September 1987 under section 2(1) of the said Act which consent was subject to the condition that the sheep to which it applies should be marked with a blue paint mark (article 5(2)(c));
(c)an exception from the said prohibition on slaughter, and from the said prohibition on supply of meat in respect of-
(i)any sheep which was moved from any place in accordance with a consent given under section 2(1) of the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985 which consent was subject to the condition that the sheep to which it applies should be marked with an apricot paint mark (article 6(2)(a));
(ii)any sheep which was moved from any place in accordance with a consent given under section 2(1) of the said Act which consent was subject to the condition that the sheep to which it applies should be marked with a green paint mark or, after 28th September 1987 with a blue paint mark respectively and which in either case has been examined and marked with an ear-tag by a person authorised by the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, the Secretary of State for Scotland or Wales, or the Department of Agriculture for Northern Ireland (article 6(2)(b)).
Under section 21 of the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985 the penalty for contravening an emergency prohibition is-
on summary conviction, a fine of an amount not exceeding the statutory maximum (at present £2,000);
on conviction on indictment, an unlimited fine or imprisonment for a term of not more than two years, or both.
Powers of enforcement in relation to emergency prohibitions are conferred by section 4 of, and Schedule 2 to, the 1985 Act. Under paragraph 10 of that Schedule obstruction of enforcement officers is an offence.
