In addition to the code of practice, this document contains three annexes:

• a good practice guide, also produced by BASC
• a summary of the terms and conditions of paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 to the Hunting Act 2004 (which is widely known as ‘the gamekeepers’ exemption’)
• an example of the type of permission which anyone intending to rely on this exemption should carry with them when undertaking terrier work.
