Lot 2: \(Scotland only\): The Slaughter, Salvage and Disposal of Farmed Livestock for TB Control Purposes\. Lot 3: \(All Regions\): The Collection & Transport of Live Animals\. for lots 1 and 2, a supplier can be located outside of these regions, but work will only be to deliver services in the stated regions\.
