   programmes for the accelerated eradication of brucellosis , tuberculosis and
   leukosis .                                                               . ' , .

81 / 476 / EEC     , in respect of intra-Community trade in bovine animals ,
health guarantees relating to brucellosis ; whereas , however , Article
7(1 ) ( E ) thereof allows Member States to grant specific derogations
concerning trade in 'bovine animals which are intended for meat pro­
duction and which are under 42 days of age or have been castrated before
the age of four months ; whereas , in order' to facilitate trade in bovine
animals whilst at the same time taking account of the currrent bru­
cellosis situation in certain Member States , these derogations may
also be applied to bovine animals intended for slaughter ;
Whereas the Community is successfully applying an accelerated scheme
for brucellosis eradication ;
