Whereas:

| --- | --- |
| (2) | The Commission inspection service, the Food and Veterinary Office (FVO) carried out an inspection at the border inspection post at the port of Antwerp in Belgium. The results of the inspection were satisfactory. An additional inspection centre should therefore be added for that border inspection post in the list set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

| | |
| --- | --- |

| | |
| --- | --- |
| (4) | Following communications from Denmark and Poland, certain inspection centres at border inspection posts for those Member States should be deleted from the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC. |

| (8) | Following communication from Spain, the list of border inspection posts for that Member State should be amended to take account of the suspension of two of its border inspection posts, of lifting the suspension for certain categories of products of animal origin that can be checked at one of its border inspection posts and of limiting the approval categories for products of animal origin at another one of its border inspection posts already approved in accordance with Decision 2009/821/EC. |

| | |
| --- | --- |
| (9) | Following communication from the Netherlands, the name of one Inspection Centre at the port of Rotterdam should be amended in the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC. |

| | |
| --- | --- |
| (12) | Decision 2009/821/EC should therefore be amended accordingly. |
