(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 May 2003 on the animal health requirements applicable to the non-commercial movement of pet animals and amending Council Directive 92/65/EEC (1), and in particular Articles 10 and 21 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 lays down a list of third countries and territories from which movement of pet animals to the Community may be authorised, provided that certain requirements are met.

(2) A provisional list of third countries was established by Regulation (EC) No 998/2003, as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1193/2005. That list includes countries and territories which are free of rabies and countries in respect of which the risk of rabies entering the Community as a result of movements from their territories has been found to be no higher than the risk associated with movements between Member States.

(3) From information supplied by Belarus, Mexico, Romania and Trinidad and Tobago it appears that the risk of rabies entering the Community as a result of movements of pet animals from these countries has been found to be no higher than the risk associated with movements between Member States or from third countries already listed in Regulation (EC) No 998/2003. Therefore those third countries should be included in the list of countries and territories set out in Regulation (EC) No 998/2003.

(4) Guam being a United States territory it is advisable to specifically mention it as part of the United States of America in order to avoid any confusion.

(5) In the interest of clarity the list of countries and territories set out in Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 should be replaced in its entirety.

(6) Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 should therefore be amended accordingly.

amending Regulation (EC) No 2799/1999 laying down detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards the grant of aid for skimmed milk and skimmed-milk powder intended for animal feed and the sale of such skimmed-milk powder

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 15 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Article 7(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2799/1999 (2) fixes the amount of aid for skimmed milk and skimmed-milk powder intended for animal feed taking into account the factors set out in Article 11(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999. In view of the increase in the market price of skimmed-milk powder in the internal market and the increase in the market prices for competing proteins, of the reduction of the supply of skimmed-milk powder and the positive situation of calf prices the amount of aid should be fixed at zero for as long as the current situation persists.

(2) Regulation (EC) No 2799/1999 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(3) The Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 2799/1999, paragraph 1 is replaced by the following:
