This Instrument ensures meat exporters have a formal voice in those discussions.\n\n**Note:** This declaration replaces any previous declarations about the same Association."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/declaration-of-designated-outwards-secondary-shipper-body-2007-no-1","history":"/api/acts/declaration-of-designated-outwards-secondary-shipper-body-2007-no-1/history","analysis":"/api/acts/declaration-of-designated-outwards-secondary-shipper-body-2007-no-1/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/declaration-of-designated-outwards-secondary-shipper-body-2007-no-1/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/declaration-of-designated-outwards-secondary-shipper-body-2007-no-1/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/declaration-of-designated-outwards-secondary-shipper-body-2007-no-1/documents"}}
