Accident and Incident Data - 2014-2015

This dataset includes the following fields for 2014/2015: Reference (unique reference number); Incident Date; Accident Type; Time Lost.  The datasets were drawn from the adverse incident recording system in operation at the time. The systems have been developed and enhanced over time to allow for greater internal analysis and comparisons. As part of its legal duties APHA records all incidents where a person has been harmed during their work or whilst attending APHA premises. In addition, the Agency has been promoting the reporting of any adverse incidents generally known as near misses or hazard observations, which is shown in the increased volume of reports.   Please note: Some of the data has been edited. Attribution statement: ©Crown Copyright, APHA 2016

Apiary Inspections and Foulbrood Disease in England for 2009

This dataset provides figures for the number of apiaries inspected by Bee Inspectors from the National Bee Unit (NBU), part of the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA).  An 'apiary' is defined as the physical dwelling place of a single colony or multiple colonies of honeybees.  The dataset gives figures for inspections carried out during 2009, and is broken down to county level within England only.  This dataset includes the following fields: Region; County; Apiaries Inspected; Number of apiaries receiving a positive American Foulbrood (AFB) diagnosis; Number of apiaries receiving a positive European Foulbrood (EFB) diagnosis; Percentages (of apiaries infected with either AFB or EFB).  Please note: this dataset has been drawn from a live database available via the NBU website.  This is a dynamic system, which has been sampled here at a single point in time, but which reflects system amendments/data updates in the 'live' environment.  This could cause the data to change over time, as data is updated or amended retrospectively.  County data is reflective of the counties stored in BeeBase, and may not necessarily reflect current recognised counties/unitary authorities. Attribution statement: ©Crown Copyright

Negated Notifiable Disease Investigations: Scotland 2014

This dataset provides figures for the number of negated Exotic Notifiable Disease investigations carried out in Scotland during 2014.  Investigations that follow the report of an exotic notifiable disease are called 'report cases'.  Notifiable diseases are animal diseases that an animal owner/keeper is under legal obligation to report to the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA), even if there is only a suspicion that an animal may be affected. 'Exotic diseases' are defined as diseases that are not currently present within the United Kingdom. A report case is negated if after a clinical examination and in some cases further diagnostic testing there is sufficient evidence for the Chief Veterinary Officer(Scotland) to negate presence of the disease. This dataset is formatted in two sections: the first provides information on who reported suspicion of disease where a report case was instigated as a result of clinical suspicion; the second half of the spreadsheet identifies why an animal was tested where report cases were started as a result of a non-negative lab result. e.g. as part of an active surveillance programme, or as part of pre-breeding tests, etc. 
For further information and explanations of the data included in this dataset, please see the document available for download alongside this dataset titled 'NDI Cases - Additional Information'. Attribution statement: ©Crown Copyright, APHA 2016

Number of bovine and porcine Artificial Breeding Controls animal licences applied for/issued during 2015

This dataset provides a list of applications received by APHA for the issue of an animal licence for a bovine or porcine animal for semen collection in England during 2015. The animal licence for bovine animals permits entry into an approved semen quarantine/collection centre for semen collection or for semen collection on an unlicensed premises. The animal licence for porcine animals permits entry into an approved quarantine/collection centre for semen collection. Semen collection can be used for Intra-union Trade or Domestic use dependent on the type of licence issued. The type of licence is identified by the acronyms EC for Intra-union trade within the 28 Member States of the European Union, DOM for Domestic trade within Great Britain or UP for Unlicensed Premises for Domestic Trade within Great Britain.

Live Animal Exports 2015

This dataset contains information on export applications received for Intra-union trade, exports to Third Countries and exports for National Trade (Northern Ireland) of live animals. The dataset contains columns for the Export Health Certificate (EHC) issued, the date the application was received, the date of export, the commodity type, the species of animal, any transit countries en route to the destination country and the destination country of export. Where the EHC column contains a reference to 2011/214 or 2011/879 the export is for Intra-union trade to a Member State of the European Union under Council Directives 2009/158/EC (as amended). Where the EHC column contains a reference to 92/65 the export is for Intra-union trade to a Member State of the European Union under Council Directives 92/65/EEC (as amended). These will include Intra-union trade certificates where the final destination was to a Third Country but the live animal transited the EU en route and was therefore required to have Intra-union trade certification issued as well as an EHC. Where the EHC column contains the words 'Non harmonised' the export was to a Member State of the EU but does not fall under any harmonised EU legislation for trade and therefore agreement to export using a Non harmonised EHC was received from the destination Member State.  The dataset is for live animal exports where the loading address was in England only. Attribution statement: ©Crown Copyright, APHA 2016

Trimethoprim/sulphonamide resistance in Salmonella Typhimurium (all phage types) from domestic livestock in 2004 - 2014

The data shows  trimethoprim/sulphonamide antimicrobrial resistance in all phage types of Salmonella Typhimurium from cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, turkeys and ducks over the period 2004 - 2014. The data is grouped by year, with totals of cultures tested and their percentage resistance to trimethoprim/sulphonamide.  Phage typing of Salmonella further subcategorises Salmonella serotypes.  A Salmonella isolate is a cultured instance of Salmonella from a sample.  An 'incident' is the confirmation of the same Salmonella type on one or more occasion within a set time period (usually thirty days), and within the same group of animals or same location. To better indicate the prevalence of resistance, only the first isolate from each incident has usually been tested. The laboratory facilities are UKAS accredited to BS EN ISO 17025:2000 (Lab Nos. 0941, 1769 and 2112) for an extensive range of tests supported by proficiency testing accredited to ISO/IEC Guide 43-1 1997 (Lab No. 0004).

Cats, Dogs and Ferrets Quarantine Licences 2013

This dataset covers quarantine licences issued by APHA to enable cats, dogs and other rabies susceptible mammals to enter an approved quarantine facility in England. This data set contains details of whether the licence issued was for an animal that was either an illegal landing (illegal) or if the owners of the animal applied for a quarantine licence prior to travelling as it was known that the animal could not meet the import requirements (standard). The dataset also covers species, quantity, date the animal(s) landed in England, date the animal(s) were released from quarantine, country of origin and the port of landing in England. The data also lists the reason the animal entered quarantine but this is only for animals landed illegally. Attribution statement: ©Crown Copyright, APHA 2016

Complete list of translated genotype names (spoligotype:VNTR type).

This dataset provides a list of translated genotype names (spoligotype:VNTR type) for bovine tuberculosis genotypes.  Each isolate of bovine tuberculosis (bTB), usually one per herd breakdown, is spoligotyped and then VNTR typed at 6 loci.  Together the spoligotype and VNTR type of an isolate are refered to as its genotype.  Each unique spoligotype pattern is given a number, such as APHA Type 17 but the VNTR type is a complex set of 6 numbers such as 7-5-5-5*-3-3.1.  To simplify the reporting of bTB genotypes the combination of spoligotype and VNTR type is 'translated' into a simpler format: spoligotype number followed by a colon followed by a letter.  Thus, an isolate of APHA Type 17 and a VNTR type 7-5-5-5*-3-3.1 is known as genotype 17:a.  This file lists the translation between simplified genotype and the original spoligotype/VNTR data.
