To minimise the damage caused by the export ban, the European Commission (EC) has included a derogation "whereby certain safe products will still be allowed to be exported. These include animal products produced before 15July 2007, those treated in a way that would inactivate any virus (such as heat treatment), or those manufactured in Great Britain but derived from animals reared outside its territory.
'Live animas and animal products will still be allowed to be dispatched from Northern Ireland to other [EU] member states, if they carry the appropriate health certificate and the responsible veterinary authority in the country of destination is given three days warning."
