THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 89/556/EEC of 25 September 1989 on animal health conditions governing intra-Community trade in and imports from third countries of embryos of domestic animals of the bovine species (1), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden, and in particular Article 8 thereof,

Whereas Commission Decision 92/452/EEC (2), as last amended by Decision 97/249/EC (3), establishes a list of embryo collection teams and embryo production teams approved in third countries for the export of embryos of domestic animals of the bovine species to the Community;

Whereas the competent veterinary services of Australia, Canada and the United States of America have forwarded requests for amendments to the lists of teams officially approved in their territories for the export of embryos of domestic animals of the bovine species to the Community; whereas it is therefore necessary to amend the list of approved teams; whereas guarantees regarding compliance with the requirements specified in Article 8 of Directive 89/556/EEC have been received by the Commission;

Whereas the list of approved collection and production teams in the Annex to Decision 92/452/EEC has been amended several times; whereas therefore it is appropriate to consolidate this list, taking account of the modifications made since the adoption of this decision;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
