Scope of BS 7671

reading the scope in the req book, I note that cats,dogs, birds, and in some definitions chickens are not covered by the regulations,


the definition of livestock from wiki is

Livestock is commonly defined as domesticated animalsraised in an agricultural setting to produce labor and commodities such as meateggsmilkfurleather, and wool. The term is sometimes used to refer solely to those that are bred for consumption, while other times it refers only to farmed ruminants, such as cattle and goats.[1]Horses are considered livestock in the United States.[2]The USDA uses livestock similarly to some uses of the term “red meat”, in which it specifically refers to all the mammal animals kept in this setting to be used as commodities. The USDA mentions pork, veal, beef, and lamb are all classified as livestock and all livestock is considered to be red meats.

    Livestock is defined as "domestic animals generally, animals of any kind kept or dealt in for profit." The Compact Edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. 1979. So the definition may also cover animals kept in a pet shop such as rabbits, dogs, snakes or reptiles etc. as well as animals found on a farm such as pigs, horses, cattle or hens etc.




    I agree . The definition does not cover domestic pets nor other people's cats , dogs. I know they are covered in law. I read in wiki that horses are covered in the USA.
