COMMISSION DECISION of 15 July 1992 drawing up a list of border inspection posts preselected for veterinary checks on products from third countries (92/430/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 90/675/EEC of 10 December 1990 laying down the principles governing the organization of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countries (1), as amended by Directive 91/496/EEC (2), and in particular Article 30 thereof,

Whereas the national authorities of the Member States have submitted to the Commission lists of border inspection posts that are to carry out veterinary checks on products from third countries;

Whereas, in line with Article 9 (3) of Directive 90/675/EEC, arrangements have been made between the Commission and the national authorities of the Member State to verify that the border inspection posts proposed are in a position to do the checking work laid down by Directive 90/675/EEC;

Whereas, in line with Article 9 (4) of the said Directive, the border inspection posts must be inspected by the Commission in cooperation with the national authorities before approval can be granted;

Whereas it would appear appropriate to allow the national authorities a period in which to bring these border inspection posts into line with all the requirements for their approval; whereas nonetheless as a transitional measure a list of preselected border posts should be compiled before the list of approved posts is drawn up;

Whereas during this transitional period the standard of these shortlisted border posts should be assessed and any appropriate measures to promote their improvement put in hand;

Whereas new posts may be proposed for addition to the list; whereas some posts may appear on the list only for inspection of certain products;

Whereas establishment of this list is without prejudice to the provisions of Article 17 of Directive 90/675/EEC dealing with establishment of the rules applicable to imports into certain parts of the territory of the Community in order to take account of constraints specific to these;

Whereas the measures provided for by this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
