MEDICATION AND VACCINATION Medication treatment and recording facility via approved medicines register in a secure and validated digital environment will enable and deliver the Anti-Doping policy for all racing and competition authorities. This will ensure accurate and enhanced traceability for Anti-Doping & drug testing policies. All vaccinations can be easily recorded and tracked and owners, keepers, vets and regulators can be automatically alerted of due vaccinations. It is of key importance to equine health and welfare that Thoroughbreds are vaccinated against Equine Influenza, reducing risks from exposure to unvaccinated horses for breeding, pre racing and racing. In the event of an outbreak of Equine Influenza, the App will provide instant access to British and Irish vaccination data, assisting in the control of this infectious disease.
å Vaccinations recorded securely and in real time å No lost vaccination records with lost passports å Automatic alerts when booster due å Pre-clearance before raceday, competition, sale and movement å Medication treatment recorded via Medicines Register supporting Anti-Doping Policy å Instant access for Regulatory bodies to medical treatment and health data for tracking, tracing and disease containment

DIGITAL MOVEMENT The E-Passport provides detailed historical movement, real time (automated) movement and future scheduling of movement through an intuitive, userfriendly interface and a built-in payment gateway. Owners, keepers, vets, governing bodies and local authorities integrate remotely into the data repository to validate and authorise certification required for local and cross-border movement. All information collected is visible in real time. The geo-location functionality provides key data for interrogation and restricts certain data – for example, health certificates - to be viewed only as complete at border crossings on validation by the respective authorities. This digitally signed (authorised), recorded and visible movement tool ensures full biosecurity and traceability for the horse. Authentication is real time and all transactions can be viewed for auditing purposes; Unbroken traceability and biosecurity

EQUINE PREMISES & BIOSECURITY Any premises on which a horse resides must be recorded and must meet biosecurity standards. Authorised veterinarians can update in real time and verify for compliance, for example - Equine Viral Arteritis (EVA) and Equine Infectious Anaemia (EIA). Using the E-Passport, pre-clearance can be assured ahead of shipment. This would significantly reduce, if not eliminate, risks of a disease outbreak at:
å
Sales Premises
å
Training yards and competitions stables
å
Agricultural premises
å
Non-training establishments, racecourses and competition arenas
å
Breeding premises
The E-Passport also supports protocols for natural service coverings.

ENHANCED FUNCTIONALITY Enhanced functionality includes health data, such as CEM/EVA, Vaccination records and food chain status reports. The data the E-Passport will collect, from birth to end of life, will deliver comprehensive welfare traceability and validation for equidae. The Data set captured within the application can be accessed and interrogated as required by relevant industry stakeholders and government via secure controlled access. The E-Passport provides the Governing Authorities with all the information and health guarantees they require without it being necessary to meet new requirements and carry out systematic checks at border entry points.
MANAGEMENT & REPORTING The E-passport system will give access to a valuable data set including equine identification, medical & vaccine records, equine movement and ownership. This will be serviced in a centralised location (real time) enabling and empowering the equine industry to analyse, interrogate and report on key data for welfare, traceability and disease control.
