Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 470/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 May 2009 laying down Community procedures for the establishment of residue limits of pharmacologically active substances in foodstuffs of animal origin, repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 and amending Directive 2001/82/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Article 14 in conjunction with Article 17 thereof,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Medicines Agency formulated by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use,

| (2) | The Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 should be corrected to indicate that the marker residue for porcine species and for skin and fat and liver of poultry species is ‘Sum of Tylvalosin and 3-O-acetyltylosin’ and that the marker residue ‘tylvalosin’ applies only to eggs of poultry species. |
