COMMISSION DECISION

of 4 April 1984

amending Decision 81/91/EEC as regards the list of establishments in Argentina approved for the purpose of importing fresh meat into the Community

(84/235/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 72/462/EEC of 12 December 1972 on health and veterinary inspection problems upon importation of bovine animals and swine and fresh meat from third countries (1), as last amended by Directive 83/91/EEC (2), and in particular Articles 4 (1), 5, 16 and 18 (1) (a) and (b) thereof,

Whereas a list of establishments in Argentina, approved for the purpose of importing fresh meat into the Community, was drawn up initially by the Commission Decision of 25 November 1980, and was amended and published by Decision 81/91/EEC (3), as last amended by Decision 84/29/EEC (4);

Whereas a routine inspection under Article 5 of Directive 72/462/EEC and Article 3 (1) of Commission Decision 83/196/EEC of 8 April 1983 concerning on-the-spot inspections to be carried out in respect of the importation of bovine animals and swine and fresh meat from non-member countries (5) has revealed that the level of hygiene of certain establishments has altered since the last inspection; whereas, consequently, it is advisable to inscribe or maintain certain of those establishments on the said list;

Whereas the inspection revealed, moreover, that the conditions in one approved establishment were such as to warrant the immediate temporary suspension of its approval; whereas Commission Decision 84/158/EEC (6) suspended approval pending a final decision; whereas the withdrawal of the approval given to the establishment should be confirmed;

Whereas the list of establishments should therefore be amended;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The Annex to Decision 81/91/EEC is hereby replaced by the Annex to this Decision.

Article 2

The approval granted to establishment No 2066 appearing on the initial list is hereby withdrawn.

Decision 84/158/EEC is hereby repealed.

Article 3

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 4 April 1984.
