(1.) Every consignment shall be accompanied by—

(a.) A statutory declaration of the owner or manager of the farm or station from which the boars come, to the effect that the boars were, at the time they left such farm or station, and always have been, free from the disease of swine-fever, and from all other infectious or contagious diseases, and had never been in contact with diseased animals, and that the said farm or station had never been visited with swine-fever or other infectious or contagious disease.

(b.) A Government certificate of health, signed by a duly qualified veterinary surgeon.
