Clause 19

If a veterinary authority has reason to believe that any animal or bird may be infected with any disease, he may subject such animal or bird to such examination or test as he may consider necessary. For the purposes of such examination or test, the veterinary authority may take blood, milk, urine, or any other substance from such animal or bird.

For the purpose of carrying out any examination or test under the provisions of subsection (1) of this section, the veterinary authority may give written directions for such animal or bird to be delivered to him at a specified place and time, and no such animal or bird shall be removed from such place after being delivered without the permission of the veterinary authority:Provided that no person shall be required to deliver any animal or bird at any place more than three miles from the place at which such animal or bird is kept.

Any person who fails without lawful excuse to comply with any written direction given under the provisions of subsection (2) of this section shall be guilty of an offence under this Ordinance and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months or to both such fine and imprisonment.
