Animal Health Act
The Animal Health Act enables the province to respond to animal diseases affecting animal health, public health, and food safety. The Act and its regulations are designed to control the spread of disease through inspections and surveillance, treatments, biosecurity measures, and control zones. The roles and duties of the Chief Provincial Veterinarian (CPV) of Alberta and inspectors are outlined. The Act requires an owner of an animal or authorized person to advise the CPV of suspected or confirmed reportable and notifiable diseases within 24 hours.
