Footnotes

1 Note that the silhouette can be completed by an appropriate person authorised to do so by the PIO, so long as the location of the transponder is marked Ⓜ and the silhouette as a whole confirmed by the vet.

2 Information on how to handle personal data, including how to process Section 29 requests, is available from the Information Commissioners Office.

3 In Scotland the enforcement authority is the Local Authority for the area in which the PIO operates.

Enforcement is usually managed by the Trading Standards Service or Environmental Health Department.
