   THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
   Having regard to Council Directive 64/432/EEC of 26 June 1964 on animal health problems affecting intra-Community trade in bovine animals and swine (1), and in particular Annex D(I)(E) thereto,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Annex D to Directive 64/432/EEC provides that a Member State or part of a Member State may, as regards bovine herds, be considered officially enzootic-bovine-leukosis-free subject to compliance with certain conditions set out in that Directive.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               The lists of regions of Member States declared free of enzootic bovine leukosis are set out in Commission Decision 2003/467/EC of 23 June 2003 establishing the official tuberculosis, brucellosis and enzootic-bovine-leukosis-free status of certain Member States and regions of Member States as regards bovine herds (2).
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Poland has now submitted to the Commission documentation demonstrating compliance with the appropriate conditions provided for in Directive 64/432/EEC as regards 14 administrative regions (powiaty) within the superior administrative units (Voivodships) of Kujawsko-Pomorskie, Łódzkie and Małopolskie, in order that those regions be considered officially enzootic-bovine-leukosis-free regions of Poland.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               Following the evaluation of that documentation, those regions (powiaty) in Poland should be recognised as officially enzootic-bovine-leukosis-free regions of that Member State.
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               Decision 2003/467/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
