    (1) Commission Decision 2000/333/EC of 25 April 2000 laying down special conditions for the import of bivalve molluscs, echinoderms, tunicates and marine gastropods originating in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam(2), states that the "National Fisheries Inspection and Quality Assurance Centre (NAFIQACEN) of the Ministry of Fisheries" is to be the competent authority in Vietnam for verifying and certifying compliance of bivalve molluscs, echinoderms, tunicates and marine gastropods with the requirements of Directive 91/492/EEC.

    (2) Following a restructuring of the Vietnamese administration, the competent authority for verifying and certifying compliance of bivalve molluscs, echinoderms, tunicates and marine gastropods has changed to the "National Fisheries Quality Assurance and Veterinary Directorate (NAFIQAVED)". This new authority is capable of effectively verifying the application of the laws in force.

    (3) Decision 2000/333/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

    (4) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
