of 26 January 2011

THE EFTA SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITY,
Having regard to points 4(B)(1) and (3) and point 5(b) of the Introductory Part of Chapter I of Annex I to the EEA Agreement,
Having regard to the Act referred to at point 1.1.4 of Chapter I of Annex I to the EEA Agreement (Council Directive 97/78/EC of 18 December 1997 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countries), as amended and adapted to the EEA Agreement by the sectorial adaptations referred to in Annex I to that Agreement, and in particular to Article 6(2) thereof,
Having regard to the Act referred to at point 1.1.5 of Chapter I of Annex I to the EEA Agreement (Council Directive 91/496/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the principles governing the organization of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries and amending Directives 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC and 90/675/EEC), as amended and adapted to the EEA Agreement by the sectorial adaptations referred to in Annex I to that Agreement, and in particular to Article 6(4) thereof,
Having regard to the Act referred to at point 1.2.111 of Chapter I of Annex I to the EEA Agreement (Commission Decision 2001/812/EC of 21 November 2001 laying down the requirements for the approval of border inspection posts responsible for veterinary checks on products introduced into the Community from third countries), as amended, and in particular to Article 3(5) thereof,
Whereas:
EFTA Surveillance Authority (the Authority), by Decision No 43/10/COL of 10 February 2010 (1), repealed its Decision No 301/08/COL of 21 May 2008 (2) and drew up a new list of border inspection posts in Iceland and Norway approved for veterinary checks on live animal and animal products from third countries.
The Government of Norway requested to add a new border inspection post (BIP) in Florø for the categories NHC-NT(6)(16) and to list a new BIP in Larvik for the category HC(2). The Government of Norway also requested to list additional categories in the inspection centre (IC) Skutvik under BIP Ålesund, HC-T(CH)(1)(2)(3), HC-NT(6) and NHC-NT(6) and to list an additional category in the BIP Kirkenes, HC-NT(1)(2)(3).
From 8 to 12 November 2010, the Authority carried out a joint inspection with the European Commission. In the course of that inspection, the proposed border inspection posts of Larvik and Florø, as well as the border inspection posts of Ålesund Port (TRACES code NO AES 1), Kirkenes Port (TRACES code NO KKN 1) were visited.
On the basis on the observations made during the joint inspection, a common recommendation was signed on 12 November 2010 by inspectors of the Authority and of the European Commission.
Accordingly, it is proposed to:
— |
add to the listing of the Inspection Centre Skutvik under BIP Ålesund the additional categories of chilled, packed fishery products, HC-T(CH)(1)(2)(3) and liquid fats, oils, fish oil for human and non-human consumption, HC-NT(6) and NHC-NT(6), |

add to the listing a new BIP with a new TRACES code, the BIP Florø (TRACES code NO FRO 1), type P with the product category fish oil and fishmeal not intended for human consumption. The BIP should be listed as NHC-NT(6)(16). |
