PART 3Measures on suspicion of avian influenza

Measures in a temporary movement restriction zone

15.—(1) The National Assembly must, in a declaration of a temporary movement restriction zone (and in relation to such part or parts of the zone as it thinks fit), ban or restrict the movement of such of the following as it considers necessary—

(a)poultry;

(b)other captive birds;

(c)eggs;

(d)vehicles used to transport poultry, other captive birds, eggs or anything else likely to transmit avian influenza;

(e)mammals.

(2) If the National Assembly bans or restricts the movement of mammals within a temporary movement restriction zone, it must lift the ban or restriction within 72 hours of it being declared unless it is satisfied that its continuation is necessary to minimise the risk of the spread of avian influenza (notwithstanding any continuing restrictions on the movement of other things listed in paragraph (1)).

(3) If the National Assembly imposes restrictions on the movement of mammals beyond 72 hours from when they were originally declared, it must review its decision to impose such restrictions a maximum of 72 hours after each renewal.
