THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 88/407/EEC of 14 June 1988 laying down the animal health requirements applicable to intra-Commnity trade in and imports of deep-frozen semen of domestic animals of the bovine species (1), as last amended by Council Directive 90/425/EEC (2), and in particular Article 9 thereof,

Whereas Community on-the-spot visits have been undertaken in Canada to ensure the uniform application of Directive 88/407/EEC, particularly in relation to the veterinary supervision of semen production systems, the powers of the veterinary services and the supervision to which semen collection centres are subject; whereas, therefore, the Commission is satisfied that the centres approved by Canada meet the terms of Directive 88/407/EEC and can, in the circumstances, be included in a list of centres approved for the export of bovine semen to the Community;

Whereas the competent veterinary services of Canada have forwarded a modified list of semen-collection centres officially approved for export of bovine semen to the Community;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
