COMMISSION DECISION
of 28 January 2005
amending Decision 2003/71/EC as regards its period of validity
(notified under document number C(2005) 186)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2005/86/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/496/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries and amending Directives 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC and 90/675/EEC (1), and in particular Article 18(7) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 97/78/EC of 18 December 1997 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countries (2) and in particular Article 22(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
The occurrence of infectious salmon anaemia (ISA) in the Faroe Islands led to the adoption of Commission Decision 2003/71/EC of 29 January 2003 on certain protective measures in respect of infectious salmon anaemia in the Faroe Islands (3). |
(2) |
Despite the control measures undertaken by the Faroe Islands, further outbreaks of ISA occurred and were notified by that State to the Commission in 2004. |
(3) |
The Faroe Islands have submitted to the veterinary subgroup established under the EU-Faroe Island Agreement (4) a contingency plan in conformity with Article 15 of Council Directive 93/53/EEC of 24 June 1993 introducing minimum Community measures for the control of certain fish diseases (5). The contingency plan includes a withdrawal scheme in accordance with Article 6 of Directive 93/53/EEC. The contingency plan, including vaccination procedures, and withdrawal scheme submitted in September 2004 have been approved by the subgroup. |
(4) |
In the light of the disease situation in the Faroe Islands and the implementation of a control strategy including vaccination, the protective measures provided for in Decision 2003/71/EC should remain applicable as long as vaccination is applied. The vaccination is expected to remain as the control strategy for at least the next two years. |
(5) |
Decision 2003/71/EC should therefore be amended in order to extend its period of validity. |
(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:
Article 1
In Article 6 of Decision 2003/71/EC, ‘31 January 2005’ is replaced by ‘31 January 2007’.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
Done at Brussels, 28 January 2005.
