asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Written Answer by the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Mr Jonathan Shaw, on 19 March (Official Report, Commons, 1123W), whether the movement of animals susceptible to bluetongue from a restricted zone in one European Union country to a free zone in another is matched by an ability to move such animals under similar veterinary oversight from a restricted zone in the United Kingdom to a free area in the United Kingdom. [HL3353]

Yes. The EU Commission Regulation 1266/2007 on bluetongue allows the movement of ruminant animals, including camelids, out of a protection or surveillance zone under certain conditions. This applies across the EU (including from UK zones to free areas in the UK and other member states).
