  • (b) in the case of any other such animal, the amount of £90.

Where an examination at a veterinary laboratory of tissues taken from the carcase of the sheep or goat does not confirm that it was an animal affected with a TSE, the compensation shall be whatever is the greater of—

  • (a) the amount which would be payable under the preceding paragraph if the examination had confirmed it was an animal affected with a TSE; and
  • (b) such sum as appears to the Secretary of State, having regard to any information provided by the owner of the animal slaughtered and any other relevant information, to reflect the market value of the animal, subject to a maximum sum of £400 for each animal.

The compensation payable for a bovine animal slaughtered under regulation 81 or 82 above shall be as specified in the remaining paragraphs of, and the Annexes to, this Part of this Schedule.

  • “exposed animal” means a bovine animal which has been exposed to the infection of a TSE;
  • “indicative market price” means a price calculated in accordance with Annex 1 to this Part of this Schedule;
  • “market value” means— in the case of a bovine animal aged 30 months or over, either— the price which might reasonably have been obtained for it at the time of valuation from a purchaser in the open market if the animal were not an affected or suspected animal or an exposed animal; or the purchase price which would have applied had the animal been slaughtered at the time of valuation in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No. 716/96 adopting exceptional support measures for the beef market in the United Kingdom, as amended, whichever is the higher; and in the case of a bovine animal aged under 30 months, the price which might reasonably have been obtained for it at the time of valuation from a purchaser in the open market if the animal were not an affected, suspected or exposed animal; and

6

Annex 1 to Part III of Schedule 1 — CALCULATION OF INDICATIVE MARKET PRICE

The indicative market price for each month shall be calculated using data collected in Great Britain relating to the month occurring two months before the month of slaughter and in accordance with the following formula:

$$(A×B)+(C×D)(A+C)$ where— A equals the number of cattle aged less than 7 years when valued which were slaughtered as BSE suspects; B equals the average price for Friesian and Holstein cows in milk and in calf, first calving cows in milk and down calving heifers, in each case of first and second quality; C equals the number of cattle aged 7 years or more when valued which were slaughtered as BSE suspects; and D equals the average purchase price paid in the case of barrener cattle of dairy breeds slaughtered in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No. 716/96 adopting exceptional measures for the support of the beef market in the United Kingdom, as amended, the final figure being rounded down to the nearest multiple of £1.$

Annex 1 to Part III of Schedule 1 — CALCULATION OF INDICATIVE MARKET PRICE

CALCULATION OF ENHANCEMENT OF COMPENSATION

1
  • (1) For bovine animals not in a closed herd, where the Secretary of State causes 10% or more of the herd to be slaughtered as exposed animals, the amount of compensation payable shall, subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) below, be enhanced by (10+E)%, where E equals half the percentage by which the percentage of the herd caused to be slaughtered exceeds 10%.
  • (2) Where the amount of compensation payable for a bovine animal exceeds £1,000, that amount shall be treated as £1,000 for the purpose of calculating under sub-paragraph (1) above the amount by which the amount of compensation payable should be enhanced.
  • (3) Where the calculation in sub-paragraph (1) above produces an enhancement percentage in excess of 25%, the amount of compensation payable shall be enhanced by 25%.
2

For bovine animals in a closed herd, where the Secretary of State causes 10% or more of the herd to be slaughtered as exposed animals, the amount of compensation payable shall be enhanced by a percentage that is 1½ times the enhancement percentage produced by the calculation in paragraph 1 above.

3

In this Schedule “closed herd” means a herd into which no female bovine animal has been introduced since 15th October 1990.
