COUNCIL DECISION

of 19 July 1982

amending the list of establishments in the Eastern Republic of Uruguay approved for the purpose of importing fresh beef and veal , sheepmeat and meat of domestic solipeds into the Community

( 82/533/EEC )

THE COUNCIL 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 ) , and in particular Articles 4 ( 1 ) and 18 ( 1 ) ( a ) and ( b ) thereof ,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,

Whereas a list of establishments in Uruguay , approved for the purposes of the importation of fresh beef and veal , sheepmeat and meat of domestic solipeds into the Community , was drawn up initially by the Commission Decision of 25 November 1980 , as amended by Decision 81/92/EEC ( 2 ) , and as last amended by Decision 81/714/EEC ( 3 ) ;

Whereas a routine inspection made pursuant to Article 5 of Directive 72/462/EEC and Article 3 paragraph 1 of Commission Decision 80/15/EEC of 21 December 1979 , concerning the on-the-spot inspections to be carried out in respect of the importation of bovine animals , swine and fresh meat from non-member countries ( 4 ) , has revealed that the level of hygiene of certain establishments may be considered to be satisfactory ; whereas these establishments may therefore be kept on the Community list ;

Whereas this inspection has , however , revealed in other establishments that in some cases insufficient effort has been made to improve hygiene standards , and in other cases those standards have fallen ; whereas the condition of these plants does not necessitate immediate withdrawal of Community approval , but does justify limiting it to a certain period ; whereas , at the end of the period , the said approval will automatically expire unless , meanwhile , the necessary measures have been taken and their actual application established by a further on-the-spot inspection , to be requested by the Uruguayan authorities if they deem it necessary ;

Whereas it is therefore necessary to amend the list of establishments concerned ;

Whereas , since the Standing Veterinary Committee has not given its assent , the Commission is unable to adopt the provisions it had envisaged on this matter under the procedure provided for in Article 30 of Directive 72/462/EEC ,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION :

Article 1

The Annex to Decision 81/92/EEC is hereby replaced by the Annex to this Decision .

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States .
