COUNCIL DIRECTIVE

of 13 December 1983

amending Directives 64/432/EEC and 72/461/EEC as regards certain measures relating to foot-and-mouth disease and swine vesicular disease

(83/646/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Articles 43 and 100 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas Directive 64/432/EEC (2), as last amended by Directive 82/893/EEC (3), lays down the conditions to be met, as regards health, by live cattle and pigs intended for intra-Community trade;

Whereas Directive 72/461/EEC (4), as last amended by Directive 82/893/EEC, lays down the conditions to be met, as regards health, by animals whose meat is intended for intra-Community trade;

Whereas, pending the introduction of definitive Community arrangements for the control of foot-and-mouth disease and without prejudice to the final solution to be adopted, it is appropriate that the Community measures provided for in Articles 4a and 4b of Directive 64/432/EEC and in Article 13 of Directive 72/461/EEC be retained for an additional period as an interim protective measure in order to maintain traditional trade flows,
