Livestock feed controls in Scotland review: analysis

Findings of our review of livestock feed controls, with a particular focus on the risk of spreading Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSEs). These controls are vital for safeguarding both animal and public health.


5. Next Steps

Having considered all consultation responses, the Scottish Government intended to proceed with all the proposals. However, the UK Government recently announced its intention to reset the UK’s relationship with the EU and pursue an SPS agreement to dynamically align with EU rules.

Therefore, we will now not be making these changes independently and will do so instead in a future process where the UK implements an SPS agreement with the EU.

Scottish Government will continue to work with industry to ensure effective communications to the public and across the feed chain when the changes are implemented.
