COMMISSION DECISION of 2 February 1994 on Community financial assistance to improve the system of veterinary controls at the Community's external frontier in Germany (Only the German text is authentic) (94/83/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE  EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the veterinary field (1), as last amended by Commission Decision 93/439/EEC (2), and in particular Article 38 thereof,
Whereas the German authorities have submitted to the Commission a national programme designed to improve external frontier controls on live animals and products of animal origin; whereas this programme comprises in particular the construction and  renovation of the necessary infrastructure, the purchase of equipment for control purposes and the recruitment of additional staff, and is accompanied by all the appropriate financial information;
Whereas stepping up veterinary inspection of external frontiers is one of the Community's priorities as a result of the completion of the internal market;
Whereas, however, Community financial participation must not exceed the appropriations available for the purpose; whereas, therefore, it is important to identify priorities so as to ensure, in particular, more efficient Community financing;
Whereas past experience has shown that special attention should be given to improving controls carried out at Community frontier inspection posts on its eastern borders;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
