COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION

of 21 December 2011

amending Decision 2009/861/EC on transitional measures under Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regard the processing of non-compliant raw milk in certain milk-processing establishments in Bulgaria

(notified under document C(2011) 9568)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2011/899/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 laying down specific hygiene rules for food of animal origin (1) and in particular Article 9 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 lays down specific rules on the hygiene of food of animal origin for food business operators. Those rules include hygiene requirements for raw milk and dairy products.

(2)

Commission Decision 2009/861/EC (2) provides for certain derogations from the requirements set out in subchapters II and III of Chapter I of Section IX of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 for the milk-processing establishments in Bulgaria listed in that Decision. That Decision applies until 31 December 2011.

(3)

Accordingly, certain milk-processing establishments listed in Annex I to Decision 2009/861/EC may, by way of derogation from the relevant provisions of Regulation (EC) No 853/2004, process compliant and non-compliant milk provided that the processing of compliant and non-compliant milk is carried out on separate production lines. In addition, certain milk-processing establishments listed in Annex II to that Decision may process non-compliant milk without separate production lines.

(4)

Bulgaria has informed the Commission that, since the entry into force of Decision 2009/861/EC, the proportion of raw milk that complies with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 853/2004, delivered to milk-processing establishments in that Member State, has considerably increased. Bulgaria has also established an action plan aimed at covering the entire production chain of milk in that Member State ensuring compliance with the EU rules.

(5)

However, according with the report submitted by Bulgaria on the basis of Article 5 of Decision 2009/861/EC and on the information provided by Bulgarian authorities during the Standing Committee of Food Chain and Animal Health of 17 October 2011, the situation of the milk sector in Bulgaria is still not in conformity with the requirements laid down in Regulation (EC) No 853/2004.

(6)

Taking into account the current situation, and in order to avoid frustrating the efforts made by the Bulgarian authorities, it is appropriate to extend the application of the measures provided for in Decision 2009/861/EC.

(7)

Bulgaria should continue the process of bringing the raw milk processed by the establishments listed in the Annexes to Decision 2009/861/EC, in compliance with the requirements laid down in Regulation (EC) No 853/2004.

(8)

In particular, Bulgaria should continue to monitor the situation and submit to the Commission regular reports on progress towards full compliance with those requirements. Based on the conclusions of those reports, appropriate measures should be taken.

(9)

Decision 2009/861/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(10)

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:
