I've just read the document entitled Avian influenza (bird flu) on the government website and it now states the following:

Pigeons or birds of prey
You can still fly pigeons or birds of prey, but you should try to keep them away from making direct contact with (or catching) wildfowl. Keep a close watch on the health of your birds.
