Sheep: Holding Register (PB13281)
The holding register (or flock/herd record) is designed to meet the record keeping requirements for sheep and goats as laid down in Council Regulation (EC) 21/2004. Using it will also help fight against sheep and goats diseases by following the European Union system for tracing animal movements. The holding register should cover all animals on a single holding and should be retained for 3 years after the last animal has moved. Defra, PB13281, 2009.
