International disease monitoring: Preliminary outbreak assessments

When Defra becomes aware of a new animal disease outbreak in another country, we may carry out a preliminary outbreak assessment. If this preliminary assessment concludes that a full qualitative risk assessment is not justified then we will publish the preliminary outbreak assessment here.

The following preliminary outbreak assessments are available in Adobe Acrobat format. Further information is available on our Help page about downloading or reading Adobe Acrobat documents.
