(5) No person shall use any vehicle for the transport of bulk feedingstuffs containing hydrolysed protein for feeding to farmed animals other than ruminants at the same time as it is used for the transport of any feed for ruminant animals.
(6) Where a vehicle used for the transport of bulk feedingstuffs containing hydrolysed protein for feeding to farmed animals other than ruminants is subsequently used for the transport of other products, the person using the vehicle for the transport of the bulk feedingstuffs containing hydrolysed protein for feeding to farmed animals other than ruminants shall ensure it is thoroughly cleaned and inspected before and after the transport of those bulk feedingstuffs.
