    COMMISSION DECISION

    of 20 June 2005

    amending Decision 92/452/EEC as regards embryo collection teams in New Zealand and the United States of America

    (notified under document number C(2005) 1812)

    (2005/450/EC)

    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 importation from third countries of embryos of domestic animals of the bovine species (1), and in particular Article 8(1) thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Commission Decision 92/452/EEC of 30 July 1992 establishing lists of embryo collection teams and embryo production teams approved in third countries for export of bovine embryos to the Community (2) provides that Member States are only to import embryos from third countries where they have been collected, processed and stored by embryo collection teams listed in that Decision.

    (2)

    New Zealand has requested that amendments should be made to the list as regards entries for that country, notably the deletion of seven centres and amendments to the addresses of three centres. Furthermore, New Zealand has changed the lettering in the approval number of centres.

    (3)

    The United States of America have requested that amendments should be made to the list as regards entries for that country, notably the addition of one centre and amendments to the addresses of three centres.

    (4)

    New Zealand and the United States of America have provided guarantees regarding compliance with the appropriate rules set out in Directive 89/556/EEC and the embryo collection teams concerned have been officially approved for exports to the Community by the veterinary services of those countries.

    (5)

    Decision 92/452/EEC should therefore be amended accordingly.

    (6)

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

    HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
