Suspension of 11 Livestock Units in Pergamon

The Veterinary Services have decided to suspend the operation of eleven livestock units in the Pergamon area. This decision was taken as a precautionary measure to prevent the movement of milk from units operating illegally in the Dead Zone and British Bases to dairies in the free areas. The Director-General of the Ministry of Agriculture, Andreas Grigoriou, stated that the suspension will remain in force until the necessary checks are completed and the findings of the ongoing investigation are issued. The aim is to determine the compliance of the units with Cypriot legislation, as well as to identify any unregistered units. The investigation will examine whether the units operate legally and in accordance with health regulations.
