Having regard to Council Directive 77/96/EEC of 21 December 1976 on the examination for trichinae (trichinella spiralis) upon importation from third countries of fresh meat derived from domestic swine (3), as last amended by Directive 84/319/EEC (4), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas a list of establishments in Norway, approved for the purpose of the importation of fresh meat into the Community, was drawn up initially by Commission Decision 83/421/EEC (5);
