12  Requirement relating to movements of cattle

Note: This section does not apply to cattle that enter the herd by birth or as feral animals or cleanskins, rather than by moving from another herd. (Animals that enter as feral animals or cleanskins are covered by subsection (9) of Schedule 1).
 (1) A herd satisfies the movement of cattle requirement for a period if, throughout the period:
 (a) any movement of cattle to or from the herd, other than a movement from or to a linked herd, is a purchase or sale at fair value; and
 (b) any movement of cattle between the herd and a linked herd:
 (i) is for a genuine business purpose that accords with established industry practice; and
 (ii) is recorded as a transaction at fair value; and
 (iii) results in a physical movement from one property to another within 6 months; and
Note: The project proponent will need to keep a record of the business purpose of such a movement—see paragraph 28A(c).
 (c) no movements to the herd take place from another herd of the project whose last assessment year has finished at the time of the movement; and
 (d) no movements from the herd take place after the end of its last  assessment year to another herd of the project whose last assessment year has not finished at the time of the movement.

            Note: Additional record requirements apply to movements in the last year of the crediting period for the purposes of ensuring compliance with paragraphs (c) and (d)—see paragraph 28A(d).
 (2) For this section, ignore any movement that involves only cattle leaving the herd for the purpose of being exported live, or being slaughtered, as soon as practicable.
