Article 4 provides that an animal may not be moved from a holding except under and in accordance with the conditions of a licence issued by the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development.

Article 5 provides that livestock may not be moved from a holding, except under licence, if an animal has been moved on to that holding in the previous 13 days.

Articles 7 to 10 make provision for the issue, variation, suspension and revocation of licences.

Article 11 enables an inspector, in a case of default, to carry out any requirements imposed under this Order or by virtue of any licence issued under it.

Article 12 provides that where animals are moved under a licence issued under this Order, the occupier of premises to which they are moved, shall provide facilities for any cleansing and disinfection required by the licence.
