This Order, which comes into operation on 2nd December 1996, revokes and replaces the Pig Production Development (Levy) Order (Northern Ireland) 1981.
The Order provides for the payment of a levy to the Department on pigs either slaughtered in Northern Ireland or exported from Northern Ireland. A levy of 21p per head is payable in respect of certain pigs slaughtered by slaughter-house licence-holders under the Slaughter-houses Act (Northern Ireland) 1953 and by exporters in respect of all pigs exported from Northern Ireland (Article 2).
A person required to pay a levy must keep certain records and produce them for inspection and must make monthly returns to the Department (Articles 3 and 4).
Article 5 provides for recovery of levy and payment of expenses.
Article 6 contains revocations.
