(c)not to remove manure, slurry or other animal waste from the premises except under the authority of a licence issued by an inspector;
(d)to take such steps as may be reasonably practicable to prevent any bovine animal kept on the premises from infecting any bovine animal kept on any adjoining premises;
(e)to arrange for the isolation of any bovine animals which may be specified in the notice on any specified part or parts of the premises;
