(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which apply in relation to Wales, provide for rates of compensation to be paid when the National Assembly causes a bovine animal to be slaughtered under Schedule 3 of the Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (Wales) Regulations 2006.
Under these Regulations, the amount of compensation payable on the slaughter of a bovine animal is the average price paid in Great Britain for that age and category of animal in the previous six months in the case of a pedigree animal, and for any other bovine animal in the previous month.
The compensation for Buffalo and Bison is the market price.
A regulatory appraisal has been prepared and placed in the library of the National Assembly. Copies can be obtained from the Department for Environment Planning and Countryside, Welsh Assembly Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ.
