Don't know the specific answer to Op

However, if they're now restricted......
I'm told that it may be possible to have IR's gamma tested, and if clear, they can maybe then be moved holdings.
(like I know wtf I'm talking about!)

Just a stat for you, if you wonder why APHA want IRs restricted so...
Before this rule came in .....24% of all IRs were going on to become reactors later.

You'd have thought if that many went on to be reactors APHA would insist they were gamma tested.

Yes, I read that just the other day in some paperwork from animal health, if they test clear on a gamma test the restrictions on moving IR’s is lifted.
