My Department has no record of an application for a transfer of herd number from the individuals referred to. Applications for the transfer of herd numbers are assessed on an individual basis and so I cannot comment on a specific case in the absence of an application. The person concerned should submit an application to the Department’s local veterinary office in Enniscorthy.
