When pigs are not slaughtered within three days of the issue of the health certificate provided for in paragraph 1(a): if the pigs have not left the holding of provenance for the slaughterhouse, they are to be re-examined and a new health certificate issued; if the pigs are already en route for or at the slaughterhouse, slaughter may be authorised once the reason for the delay has been assessed, provided that the pigs undergo a further veterinary ante-mortem inspection.
