In page 23, line 38, to delete subsection (5) and substitute the following:“(5) In forming an opinion for the purposes of subsection (2), an authorised officer may, among other considerations, have regard to -(a) veterinary or other reputable opinion or advice which may be of general application or, in a particular instance, be obtained remotely, or(6) A person who contravenes subsection (1) commits an offence.”.
(b) a code of practice.
