(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down the animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (1) and in particular the introductory phrase of Article 8, the first paragraph of point 1 of Article 8 and point 4 of Article 8 thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 2009/158/EC of 30 November 2009 on animal health conditions governing intra-Community trade in, and imports from third countries of, poultry and hatching eggs (2), and in particular Articles 23(1) and 24(2) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Commission Decision 2007/777/EC of 29 November 2007 laying down the animal and public health conditions and model certificates for imports of certain meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines for human consumption from third countries and repealing Decision 2005/432/EC (3) lays down rules on imports into the Union and the transit and storage in the Union of consignments of meat products, treated stomachs, bladders and intestines, as defined in 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 (4). |

| (2) | Part 2 of Annex II to that Decision sets out a list of third countries or parts thereof from which the introduction into the Union of those commodities, which are subject to different treatments listed in Part 4 of that Annex, are authorised. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

Part 2 of Annex II to that Decision sets out a list of third countries or parts thereof from which the introduction into the Union of those commodities, which are subject to different treatments listed in Part 4 of that Annex, are authorised.

| (3) | Israel is listed in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC as authorised for the introduction into the Union of meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines for human consumption obtained from meat of poultry, farmed ratites and wild game birds, which have undergone a non-specific treatment, for which no minimum temperature is specified (‘treatment A’). |

Israel is listed in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC as authorised for the introduction into the Union of meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines for human consumption obtained from meat of poultry, farmed ratites and wild game birds, which have undergone a non-specific treatment, for which no minimum temperature is specified (‘treatment A’).

| (4) | Commission Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 of 8 August 2008 laying down a list of third countries, territories, zones or compartments from which poultry and poultry products may be imported into and transit through the Community and the veterinary certification requirements (5) provides that the commodities covered by it are only to be imported into and transited through the Union from the third countries, territories, zones or compartments listed in columns 1 and 3 of the table in Part 1 of Annex I thereto. |

(4)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 of 8 August 2008 laying down a list of third countries, territories, zones or compartments from which poultry and poultry products may be imported into and transit through the Community and the veterinary certification requirements (5) provides that the commodities covered by it are only to be imported into and transited through the Union from the third countries, territories, zones or compartments listed in columns 1 and 3 of the table in Part 1 of Annex I thereto.

| (5) | Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 also lays down the conditions for a third country, territory, zone or compartment to be considered as free from highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) and the requirements for the veterinary certification in that respect for commodities destined for importation into the Union. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 also lays down the conditions for a third country, territory, zone or compartment to be considered as free from highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) and the requirements for the veterinary certification in that respect for commodities destined for importation into the Union.

| (6) | Israel is listed in the table in Part 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 as a third country from which all poultry commodities covered by that Regulation may be imported into the Union. |
| --- | --- |

(6)

Israel is listed in the table in Part 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 as a third country from which all poultry commodities covered by that Regulation may be imported into the Union.

| (7) | On 8 and 9 March 2012 Israel notified the Commission of two outbreaks of HPAI of the H5N1 subtype on its territory. Due to those confirmed outbreaks of HPAI, the territory of Israel should no longer be considered as free from that disease. As a consequence, the veterinary authorities of Israel have suspended issuing veterinary certificates for consignments of certain poultry commodities from its whole territory destined for imports into the Union. |

As a consequence, the veterinary authorities of Israel have suspended issuing veterinary certificates for consignments of certain poultry commodities from its whole territory destined for imports into the Union.

| (8) | As a consequence of those HPAI outbreaks, Israel no longer complies with the animal health conditions for applying ‘treatment A’ to meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines for human consumption obtained from meat of poultry, farmed ratites and wild game birds as listed in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC. The current ‘treatment A’ is insufficient to eliminate animal health risks linked to those commodities and upon confirmation of HPAI, the veterinary authorities of Israel therefore immediately suspended certification for products having undergone such treatment. |

(9)

Israel informed the Commission of the control measures taken in relation to the recent outbreaks of HPAI. That information and the epidemiological situation in Israel have been evaluated by the Commission.

| (10) | Israel has implemented a stamping out policy in order to control that disease and limit its spread. Israel is also carrying out avian influenza surveillance activities which appear to meet the requirements set out in Part II of Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008. |

Israel has implemented a stamping out policy in order to control that disease and limit its spread. Israel is also carrying out avian influenza surveillance activities which appear to meet the requirements set out in Part II of Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008.

| (11) | The positive outcome of the Commission’s evaluation of the control measures taken by Israel and the epidemiological situation in that third country allow limiting the restrictions on imports into the Union for certain poultry commodities to the zone affected by the disease, which the veterinary authorities of Israel have placed under veterinary restrictions. The restrictions on those imports should apply during a three-month period until 22 June 2012, following adequate cleansing and disinfection of the previously infected holdings provided avian influenza surveillance has been carried out during that period by Israel. |

| (12) | The table in Part 1 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC lists the territories or parts of territories of third countries to which regionalisation for animal health reasons applies. An entry for Israel should therefore be inserted in that table indicating the area in Israel that is affected by the outbreaks of HPAI of 8 and 9 March 2012. |

| (15) | Furthermore, following a previous HPAI outbreak in 2011, imports of certain poultry commodities from Israel to the Union were prohibited by Regulation (EC) No 798/2008, as amended by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 427/2011 (6). The ‘closing date’ of 8 March 2011 indicated in column 6A for the area in Israel covered by code IL-3 in the table in Part 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008, relating to that outbreak should be deleted as the period of 90 days during which commodities produced before that date may be imported, has elapsed. |
