The Swine Fever (Infected Areas) Order of 1902 regulates the 

 movement of swine along, over, or across a highway or thorough- 

 fare in swine fever infected areas, i.e., areas to which the Order 

 applies. In every case the swine must be accompanied by a 

 Movement Licence of the Local Authority of the district in 

 which the swine are when the licence is granted. Where the 

 swine are to be moved from farm premises which are within 

 an infected area, a licence cannot be granted unless the swine 

 have been on the same premises for at least twenty-eight days, 

 and no other pig has been brought on to those premises within 

 such period. No public market, fair, sale, or exhibition of swine 

 can be held in a swine fever infected area.
