           THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

           veterinary, animal husbandry, plant health, feedingstuffs and animal welfare fields; whereas it
           is important to clarify the situation of this legislation with regard to mutual assistance, so that
           the rules relating to mutual assistance can be applied without ambiguity in these areas also,
