Diseased Cattle.

WHEREAS it having been found that Cattle suffering from infectious disease have been landed at the Port of Otago, it is desirable that the restrictions upon the landing of Cattle arriving from other Ports, provided by sub-sections A, B, C, and D, of Section 4 of the "Diseased Cattle Act, 1861," should be strictly enforced.

The following instructions have therefore been issued to the Inspector of Cattle—

1. On the arrival of any vessel in the said Port having Cattle on board, to ascertain their number, to inspect every animal with the greatest care, and if no infectious disease shall be apparent in any animal at the time of such inspection, to give notice to the master of such vessel that he will inspect the said cattle again at the end of three days, at which time, if no infectious disease shall be apparent in any animal, to order the removal of the said Cattle to a Quarantine Ground, to be appointed by the Superintendent for that purpose, there to remain until they shall be released by virtue of an order, in writing, under the hand of the Superintendent.

But if it shall appear on such first or second inspection that any one or more of such Cattle are suffering from any infectious disease, to forthwith give notice to that effect to the Master of such vessel, in pursuance of sub-section C of section 4 of the "Diseased Cattle Act, 1861."

2. On the expiration of 24 hours after such last-mentioned notice shall have been given, to visit the said vessel, and if he shall find any Cattle alive therein, or if the said Cattle, or any of them, shall have been landed either alive or dead during the said 24 hours, to take immediate steps for the enforcement of the penalties created by section No. 12 of the aforesaid Act.
