COMMISSION DECISION
of 5 February 1993
on animal health conditions and veterinary certification for imports of registered equidae and equidae for breeding and production
(93/197/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/426/EEC of 26 June 1990 on animal health conditions governing the movement and import from third countries of equidae ( 1 ), as last amended by Directive 92/36/EEC ( 2 ), and in particular Article 15 point (a) and Article 16 thereof,
Whereas by Council Decision 79/542/EEC ( 3 ), as last amended by Commission Decision 93/100/EEC ( 4 ), the list of third countries from which the Member States authorize imports of equidae in particular has been established;
Whereas it is also necessary to take into account the regionalization of certain third countries appearing on the abovementioned list, which is the subject of Commission Decision 92/160/EEC ( 5 ), as amended by Decision 92/161/EEC ( 6 );
Whereas the responsible national veterinary authorities have undertaken to notify the Commission and the Member States, by telegram, telex or telefax, within 24 hours of the confirmation of the occurrence of any infectious or contagious disease in equidae of lists A and B of the International Office of Epizootic Diseases or of the adoption of vaccination against any of them or, within an appropriate period, of any changes in the national import rules concerning equidae;
Whereas the conditions to be established for imports of equidae for breeding and production apply without prejudice to the requirements of Countil Directive 86/469/EEC ( 7 ) that no thyreostatic, estrogenic, androgenic or gestagenic substances are used for fattening purposes in equidae;
Whereas Member States import equidae in accordance with the provisions of Council Directive 91/496/EEC ( 8 ), as last amended by Decision 92/438/EEC ( 9 ), which laid down the principles governing the organization of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries;
Whereas the existence of equivalent health situations between certain third countries justifies establishing several health zones for the importation of equidae;
Whereas the different categories of equidae have their own features and their imports are authorized for different purposes; whereas, consequently specific health requirements must be established for imports of registered equidae and equidae for breeding and production;
Whereas, given the existence of different health situations, it is therefore necessary to establish several health certificates for registered equidae and for equidae for breeding and production;
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
Without prejudice to Decision 92/160/EEC, Member States shall authorize imports of registered equidae and equidae for breeding and production:
