THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Decision 97/132/EC of 17 December 1996 on the conclusion of the Agreement between the European Community and New Zealand on sanitary measures applicable to trade in live animals and animal products (1), and in particular the third paragraph of Article 3 thereof,

1

Whereas:

| (1) | The Agreement between the European Community and New Zealand on sanitary measures applicable to trade in live animals and animal products (‘the Agreement’) provides for the possibility of recognising equivalence for sanitary measures after the exporting Party has objectively demonstrated that its measures achieve the importing Party's appropriate level of protection (‘the Parties’). |
| --- | --- |

(1)

The Agreement between the European Community and New Zealand on sanitary measures applicable to trade in live animals and animal products (‘the Agreement’) provides for the possibility of recognising equivalence for sanitary measures after the exporting Party has objectively demonstrated that its measures achieve the importing Party's appropriate level of protection (‘the Parties’).

| (2) | The Agreement was duly approved by Decision 97/132/EC which also provides that amendments to the Annexes thereto which are the result of the recommendations by the Joint Management Committee should be adopted according to the procedure referred to in Council Directive 72/462/EEC (2). Directive 72/462/EEC was repealed by Council Directive 2004/68/EC (3). Recital 10 of Directive 2004/68/EC states that the public health and official control rules which apply to meat and meat products by virtue of Directive 72/462/EEC have been replaced by those of Regulation (EC) No 854/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4). That recital also states that the other rules of Directive 72/462/EEC have been replaced by Council Directive 2002/99/EC (5) and by Directive 2004/68/EC. |

| (3) | New Zealand restructured its competent authorities in 2010 and the new competent authority is now the Ministry for Primary Industries. The Union proposed a slight amendment to the definition of the roles of the Member States and the Commission. The Parties recommended updating Annex II to the Agreement to reflect these changes. |

The Union proposed a slight amendment to the definition of the roles of the Member States and the Commission. The Parties recommended updating Annex II to the Agreement to reflect these changes.

| (4) | The Parties recommended making changes to the definitions of the different equivalence status, notably on the ‘Yes-1’ status in the Glossary of Annex V to the Agreement, where a link to the model attestation in Section 1(a) of Annex VII thereto on certification was made. The Parties also wished to provide for a legal basis for the Union to use the integrated electronic system of the Union provided for in Commission Decision 2003/24/EC (6) (‘TRACES’) for laying down the import certificates for ‘Yes-1’ products from New Zealand. This use will allow for more rapid certification updates, as well as for further use of electronic certification. The Parties further recommended including definitions for TRACES and the electronic system of New Zealand (E-cert) and updating the names of certain animal diseases listed in the Glossary of Annex V to the Agreement. |

| (5) | New Zealand carried out a new risk assessment for the import of bovine semen and embryos. As a result, epizootic haemorrhagic disease is no longer considered a disease of significance for bovine semen and New Zealand has removed its import conditions. Furthermore, the conditions on Q-fever and bovine viral diarrhoea (type II) were revised by New Zealand. The Parties therefore recommended amending Chapter 1 on ‘Semen’ and Chapter 2 on ‘Embryos’ of Section 1 and Chapter 28 on ‘Miscellaneous certification provisions’ of Section 5 of Annex V to the Agreement. The Parties furthermore recommended deleting, in Chapter 1 on ‘Semen’ of Section 1, the previous ‘actions’ for New Zealand exports to the Union and introducing a new ‘action’ requesting the Union to consider reviewing whether testing of semen for infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing methodology approved by the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), which provides an equivalent assurance to IBR disease freedom. It is therefore appropriate to amend the special conditions in Chapters 1 and 2 of Section 1 and the relevant certification provisions in Chapter 28 of Section 5 of Annex V to the Agreement. |

| (6) | In relation to live bees, the Union has adopted new legislation for the listing of Member States or regions free of varroosis in bees and to which trade restrictions apply. These apply also to imports from New Zealand, as it is not free of that disease. The Parties recommended adding, in Chapter 3 on ‘Live animals’ of Section 1 of Annex V to the Agreement, for live bees and bumble bees including ‘bee/bumble bee germplasm’ set out under special conditions, an export restriction to Member States or regions thereof listed in the Annex to Commission Implementing Decision 2013/503/EU (7). The Union has also amended its import conditions for American foul brood in Commission Decision 2010/270/EU (8). The Parties therefore also recommended amending Chapter 28 on ‘Miscellaneous certification provisions’ of Section 5 of Annex V to the Agreement. |

| (11) | New Zealand conducted a science based risk assessment on raw milk products and established import requirements and legal mechanisms to recognise equivalence for unpasteurised milk products (excluding raw milk). The Union studied that assessment and both Parties concluded and recommended recognising reciprocal equivalence on these products in 2010. For consistency and simplification, the Parties recommended replacing, in Chapter 8 on ‘Milk and milk products for human consumption’ of Section 3 of Annex V to the Agreement, the subtypes ‘Soft raw milk cheeses’ and ‘Hard raw milk cheeses (Parmesan)’ with a new subtype ‘Unpasteurised milk products (excluding raw milk)’ set to a ‘Yes-1’ status without any special conditions. |

| (12) | The Union revised its rules on testing methods for detecting marine biotoxins in live bivalve molluscs in Commission Regulation (EU) No 15/2011 (9). New Zealand submitted to the Union equivalence dossiers on its biotoxin testing methodology and approval criteria in the years 2003, 2006 and 2010. After evaluation, the Parties determined that each other's systems are equivalent, while no change to Annex V to the Agreement is necessary. |

| (13) | The Union undertook a major review of its animal by-products (‘ABP’) legislation. Regulation (EC) No 1774/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council (10) was repealed and replaced by Regulation (EC) No 1069/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council (11) and Commission Regulation (EU) No 142/2011 (12). Based on an assessment on the maintenance of equivalence, the Parties concluded that the equivalence status for ABP for New Zealand exports to the Union, as well as for Union exports to New Zealand under the Agreement, is not affected by the new Union legislation and no change to Annex V thereto is necessary. |

| (18) | Based on an assessment, the Parties concluded that, for products where equivalence ‘Yes-1’ is established, both Parties' microbiological monitoring and testing systems for fishery and dairy products were equivalent, though acknowledged that the microbiological criteria may differ. The responsibility for meeting the specific importing Parties' food safety criteria is with the exporting operators. The Parties recommended including, in Chapter 27 of Section 5 of Annex V to the Agreement, a subchapter on provisions on a microbiological monitoring and testing system. These provisions also apply to the meat sector, based on the equivalence status previously agreed by the Parties. |

| (28) | The Parties clarified that the model health attestation, as laid down in Section 1 of Annex VII to the Agreement, may be used when a live animal or product has equivalence ‘Yes (1)’ on public health or animal health only, without the need for certification equivalence. Consequently, the Parties recommended amendments to Section 1 of that Annex, including to the provision for the model attestation to be used on certificates issued after the date of departure, such that its use be limited to live animals and products for which certification systems equivalence has been determined in Chapter 27 of Section 5 of Annex V thereto. |

| (31) | Both Parties have developed electronic certification systems, as well as a link enabling data transfer between the New Zealand E-cert and the Union TRACES systems, thereby enabling certification to be provided electronically for New Zealand products exported to the Union. As that electronic certification provides equivalent guarantees to paper based certification, the Parties recommended amending Annex VII to the Agreement to provide the legal mechanism necessary to allow for the exclusive use of electronic certification. |

| (32) | The Parties re-evaluated the frontier checks of live animals and animal products laid down in Section A of Annex VIII to the Agreement. The Parties recommended laying down the level of identity checks to 100 % whereby this rate may be applied by the Parties in a discretionary way. The Parties further recommended laying down a legal basis for delegating the activities for the frontier checks to a responsible person or agency. Based on the high level of performance and reliability in bilateral trade, the Parties recommended reducing the frequency rate of physical checks for animal products for human consumption from 2 % to 1 %. The Parties further clarified that live animals for human consumption are in the same category as animal products for human consumption in relation to the testing frequency for physical checks and therefore recommended adding ‘Live animals’ before ‘animal products for human consumption’ in Chapter 2 on ‘Physical checks’, now amended into ‘Physical checks (including random or targeted)’ of Section A of that Annex. |

| (33) | After a re-evaluation of the inspection fees for border checks, the Parties recommended updating these fees in Section B of Annex VIII to the Agreement. For New Zealand exports to the Union, the Parties recommended that the inspection fees be applied in accordance with Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (18) with a reduction of 22,5 %. This reduction rate is calculated on the assumption that the rate of the physical checks for New Zealand imports is only 10 % of the normal physical checks rate applied to other third countries and assuming that the costs for physical checks account for 25 % of the total fees costs. For Union exports to New Zealand, there is a differentiation between consignments where documentary and identity checks are carried out and those where additionally physical checks are carried out. There is further laid down an inflation adjustment for New Zealand's inspection fees. |

This reduction rate is calculated on the assumption that the rate of the physical checks for New Zealand imports is only 10 % of the normal physical checks rate applied to other third countries and assuming that the costs for physical checks account for 25 % of the total fees costs. For Union exports to New Zealand, there is a differentiation between consignments where documentary and identity checks are carried out and those where additionally physical checks are carried out. There is further laid down an inflation adjustment for New Zealand's inspection fees.
