No Act! :gig

I don't need legal qualifications to read and understand the meaning of words in a Government document.

Legislation is not law. Rule is not law. Mandate is not law. Requirement is not law. Regulation is not law. Only Act is law.

If you volunteer any information regarding the number of poultry you keep it is your own choice. No one can make you give them that / or any other info if you choose not to. Unless your chickens are running around killing or causing grevious bodily harm to people.

Show me the Act.

So show me the Act?

Voluntary registration – less than 50 birds You can register 49 birds or less, including any you keep as pets. The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) encourages you to register even though you do not have to by law.

This is not a law. It is a "requirement" / a "rule", meaning you have a choice to play along or reject such nonesense. The bodies only get away with these info-gathering measures if people volunteer their info. Key word: New registration requirements = requires / needs you to take part.
