COMMISSION DECISION

of 27 October 1998

concerning the importation of certain live animals and animal products from
Zimbabwe and the Falkland Islands and amending Council Decision 79/542/EEC

(notified under document number C(1998) 3239)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(98/622/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 72/462/EEC of 12
December 1972 on health and veterinary inspection
problems upon importation of bovine, ovine and caprine
animals and swine, fresh meat or meat products from
third countries (1), as last amended by Directive 97/
79/EC (2), and in particular Article 3 thereof,

Whereas Council Decision 79/542/EEC (3),
last
amended by Commission Decision 98/594/EC (4), draws
up a list of third countries from which the Member States
authorise imports of bovine animals, swine, equidae,
sheep and goats, fresh meat and meat products;

as

Whereas, following Community veterinary missions,
it
appears that both Zimbabwe and the Falkland Islands are
covered by sufficiently well-structured and organised
veterinary services;

Whereas Zimbabwe and the Falkland Islands should be
added to the list of third countries from which Member
States authorise imports of meat of wild animals;

Whereas the Falkland Islands should be added to the list
of third countries from which Member States authorise
imports of live animals and meat of bovine and ovine
species;

Whereas Decision 79/542/EEC should be amended
accordingly;

Whereas the specific animal health conditions and veter-
inary certification for importation of bovine animals,
swine, equidae, sheep and goats, fresh meat and meat
products will be laid down in other Decisions according
to the animal health situation of
the third country
concerned;

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

Part 1 of the Annex to Decision 79/542/EEC is replaced
by the Annex to this Decision.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 27 October 1998.
