THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

(2)

Chapter 2 of Annex I to Commission Decision 2003/467/EC (2) lists the regions of the Member States which are declared officially tuberculosis-free as regards bovine herds.

(3)

Italy has submitted to the Commission documentation demonstrating compliance for the Province of Frosinone of the Region of Lazio with the conditions laid down in Directive 64/432/EEC for officially tuberculosis-free status as regards bovine herds. Accordingly, that province should be listed in Chapter 2 of Annex I to Decision 2003/467/EC as officially tuberculosis-free region as regards bovine herds.
