COMMISSION DECISION

of 29 May 1986

amending Decision 83/218/EEC as regards the list of establishments in Romania approved for the purpose of importing fresh meat into the Community

(86/289/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, swine and fresh meat from third countries (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2), and in particular Articles 4 (1) and 18 (1),

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 Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85, and in particular Article 4 thereof,

Whereas a list of establishments in Romania, approved for the purpose of importing fresh meat into the Community, was drawn up initially by Commission Decision 83/218/EEC (4), as last amended by Decision 85/512/EEC (5);

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, swine and fresh meat from non-member countries (6) has revealed that the level of hygiene of certain establishments has altered since the last inspection;

Whereas this same inspection has shown that a further establishment complies with the conditions of Article 2 of Directive 77/96/EEC; whereas, therefore, this establishment may be authorized to carry out the examination to detect the presence of trichinae in fresh pigmeat;

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 83/218/EEC is hereby replaced by the Annex to this Decision.
