THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 64/432/EEC of 26 June 1964 on animal health problems affecting intra-Community trade in bovine animals and swine(1), as last amended by Council Directive 98/99/EC(2), and in particular Annex AI(4) thereof,

(1) Whereas Member States or regions of Member States may be declared officially tuberculosis-free if they meet certain conditions set up in Directive 64/432/EEC;

(2) Whereas, Commission Decision 97/76/EC(3) of 17 December 1996 laying down the methods of control for maintaining the officially tuberculosis-free status of bovine herds in certain Member States and regions of Member States, specifies the Member States and regions within Member States that fulfil these criteria;

(3) Whereas this Decision will not be adapted to the legal situation on 1 July 1999 since Directive 64/432/EEC was amended by Directive 98/46/EC(4); whereas moreover certain provisions for the recognition as officially tuberculosis-free Member State or region have been modified by Directive 98/46/EC; whereas it is necessary to repeal Decision 97/76/EC;

(4) Whereas in accordance with the provisions of Directive 64/432/EEC Member States or regions may be declared officially tuberculosis-free if they meet the conditions of Annex AI(4) and they retain their status as long as the conditions of Annex AI(5) are fulfilled;

(5) Whereas the Commission may decide to suspend or revoke the officially tuberculosis-free status of Member States in accordance with the provisions in Annex AI(5) of that Directive;

(6) Whereas in accordance with Annex AI(4)(b) an identification system allowing the identification of herds of origin and transit for each bovine animal in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 820/97(5) is a prerequisite for granting the officially free status for bovine tuberculosis;

(7) Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The Member States and regions thereof referred to respectively in Annexes I and II are declared officially free of bovine tuberculosis.
