THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, Having regard to Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the 
veterinary field
1, and in particular Article 24(11) thereof, 
Whereas: 
(1) Decision 90/424/EEC provides for the possibility of a financial contribution by the 
Community towards the eradication and monitoring of the animal diseases listed in that Decision and for the monitoring and control of certain zoonoses. Each year, 
Member States are to submit to the Commission the programmes for which they wish 
to receive a financial contribution. 
(2) Criteria for the eradication and monitoring programmes provided for in Decision 
90/424/EEC have been established by Council Decision 90/638/EEC of 
27 November 1990 laying down Community criteria for the eradication and 
monitoring of certain animal diseases
2. 
(3) Commission Decision 2002/677/EC3 lays down standard reporting requirements for 
programmes of eradication and control of  animal diseases co-financed by the 
Community. 
(4) Similarly standard requirements  for the content of applica tions for Community financing 
for eradication, monitoring and control programmes should improve the process of 
                                                 
1 OJ L 224, 18.9.1990, p. 19. Decision as last amended by Directive 2003/99/EC (OJ L 325, 12.12.2003, 
p. 31). 
2 OJ L 347, 12.12.1990, p. 27. Decision as amended by Directive 92/65/EEC (OJ L 268, 14.9.1992,

   submission, approval and assessment of progress during implementation of the 
programmes. Standard requirements should also create greater clarity and transparency 
for the Member States and the Commission and clarify the criteria laid down in Decision 
90/638/EEC for the Member States. The st andard requirements should cover all the 
criteria laid down in Decision 90/638/EEC. For the sake of consistency they should be in 
line with the standard reporting requirem ents for eradication and control programmes 
laid down in Decision 2002/677/EEC.  
(5) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the 
Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
