The Notifiable Epizootic Avian Disease Control Strategy describes how an outbreak of Avian Influenza or Newcastle disease in Northern Ireland would be managed.
It sets out the measures applied in such an eventuality. It also describes the measures and wider framework in place to prevent and limit an incursion of disease.
It is the aim of this strategy that all affected during an outbreak of Avian Influenza or Newcastle disease will be able to be better prepared to respond quickly and effectively to controls and limit the outbreak, thereby mitigating the likely impact of the control measures described.
For further information, please visit our Avian Influenza page, or our Newcastle Disease page.
In the light of the EU Animal Health Law Regulation (2016/429), the Notifiable Epizootic Avian Disease Control Strategy has been reviewed. The updated version is available below.
