This legislation has been repealed.
If an animal to which
an NLIS device is applied is moved to an abattoir except from a saleyard, the
abattoir operator must —
(a) as
soon as practicable after the animal has been slaughtered; or
(b)
before it is otherwise moved from the abattoir,
check, and if
necessary update, the NLIS database to ensure that the PIC recorded in
relation to the device is the relevant PIC of the property on which the owner
of the animal kept it before it was moved to the abattoir.
Penalty: a fine of $5 000.
