The Foot-and-Mouth Disease (Ascertainment of Value) (Wales) (No. 5) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/2771 (W.))
This Order revokes and substantially re-makes the Foot-and-Mouth Disease (Ascertainment of Value) (Wales) (No. 4) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/1273 (W.72)). It sets out the requirements for the valuation of animals slaughtered or liable to be slaughtered as a result of Foot-and-Mouth disease but does not contain a Standard Values table as appeared in the previous Order. After the coming into force of this Order, the value of animals is therefore to be established by individual valuation alone.

(2) The value of an animal valued under this Order shall be the amount determined in writing by a valuer appointed and paid for by the Minister.
(3) If within 14 days after having received the valuation made in accordance with paragraph (2), the owner has not given notice in writing to the Minister that he or she disputes that valuation, it shall be deemed to have been accepted.

(5) Liability for the costs of the arbitration shall be determined by the arbitrator.
(6) Once the value of the animal has been determined in accordance with paragraph (2), nothing in this article shall authorise any delay in the slaughtering of that animal pursuant to the powers of the Minister under section 31 of, and paragraph 3(1) of Schedule 3 to, the Animal Health Act 1981.
The Foot-and-Mouth Disease (Ascertainment of Value) (Wales) (No. 4) Order 2001 is revoked.
