Description
Within DAERA the Veterinary Service Animal Health Group has an Identification,Registration and Movement (IRM) Branch that monitors compliance with the legislative requirements for animal identification and movement recording.
The Cattle Identification (Notification of Births, Deaths and Movements) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1999 require herd Keepers to notify the movement of animals on to and off their farms. To facilitate this DAERA provides movement notification documentation for the use of the Keepers concerned. IRM Branch determines the need for replacement stocks by monitoring the usage of notification documents and ordering sufficient stocks to support the continued operation of that system.
Please see CFT documents for full details of the requirements.
