    THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

    Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

    Having regard to Council Directive 2008/71/EC of 15 July 2008 on the identification and registration of pigs (1), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Directive 2008/71/EC sets out the minimum requirements for the identification and registration of animals, without prejudice to more detailed Union rules which may be established for disease eradication or control purposes.

    (2)

    Under Article 3(1) of Directive 2008/71/EC, Member States are to ensure that the competent authority has an up-to-date list of all the holdings which keep animals covered by this Directive and are situated on their territory.

    (3)

    Article 3(2) of Directive 2008/71/EC provides the possibility to authorise Member State to exclude from the list of holdings required by Article 3(1) of that Directive natural persons who keep one single pig which is intended for their own use or consumption, provided that this animal is subjected to the controls laid down in that Directive before any movement.

    (4)

    Commission Decision 2006/80/EC (2) authorises certain Member States to apply the derogation provided for in Article 3(2) of Directive 2008/71/EC as regards holdings with one single pig.

    (5)

    Poland is authorised to apply the derogation provided for in Article 3(2) of Directive 2008/71/EC as regards holdings with one single pig.

    (6)

    Poland has requested the withdrawal of the Member State authorisation provided for in Article 3(2) of Directive 2008/71/EC as regards holdings with one single pig and has implemented the requirements of the identification and registration laid down in that Directive.

    (7)

    On the basis of this information, it is appropriate to delete the entry for Poland in the list set out in the Annex to Decision 2006/80/EC, as regards the application of the authorisation provided for in Article 3(2) of Directive 2008/71/EC concerning holdings with one single pig.

    (8)
