Regulation 2(4) corrects printing errors in regulation 39 of the 2002 Regulations. Regulation 2(5) makes it clear that in http://www.scotland-legislation.hmso.gov.uk/legislation/scotland/ssi2003/20030198.htm#note3 http://www.scotland-legislation.hmso.gov.uk/legislation/scotland/ssi2003/20030198.htm#note4 http://www.scotland-legislation.hmso.gov.uk/legislation/scotland/ssi2003/20030198.htm#note5 The TSE (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2003 file:///D/HTML/uk38619.htm[16.01.2025 11:43:08] Other Scottish Statutory Instruments | UK Statutory Instruments | Home | Her Majesty's Stationery Office We welcome your comments on this site © Crown copyright 2003 Prepared 4 April 2003 certain circumstances it is an offence for persons to have in their possession, outwith a licensed slaughterhouse, a carcase of a sheep or goat intended for placing on the market for human consumption.

Regulation 2(9) clarifies the requirements for cleansing and disinfection set out in regulation 69 of the 2002 Regulations.
