Article 2f Suspension and restoration of exotic disease-free status

1.   Where the appropriate authority has reason to believe that the condition for maintaining exotic disease-free status is no longer met in respect of their constituent GB territory, zone or compartment, the appropriate authority must undertake an investigation.

2.   Where the investigation required by paragraph 1 confirms that the condition for maintaining exotic disease-free status is still met, the disease-free status of the constituent GB territory, zone or compartment may be restored.
