Having regard to Council Directive 72/166/EEC of 24 April 1972 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to insurance against civil liability in respect of the use of motor vehicles and to the enforcement of the obligation to insure against such liability(1), and in particular Article 7(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The relationships between the national insurers' bureaux (hereinafter the bureaux) of the Member States, and those of the Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Iceland, Norway, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland are governed by the Multilateral Agreement of 30 May 2002 (hereinafter the Agreement).
(2) The Agreement was attached to Commission Decision 2003/564/EC of 28 July 2003 on the application of Council Directive 72/166/EEC relating to checks on insurance against civil liability in respect of the use of motor vehicles(2) which required each Member State to refrain from making checks on insurance against civil liability in respect of vehicles which are normally based in another Member State or in the territories of Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Hungary, Iceland, Norway, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland and which are subject to the Agreement.
(3) On 1 November 2003 the bureaux of the Member States and those of Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Norway, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland, signed Addendum No 1 to the Agreement by which the Agreement was extended in order to include the bureaux of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta and Poland.

COMMISSION DECISION of 22 December 1992 laying down certain transitional measures necessary to facilitate the changeover to the new arrangements provided for in Council in Directive 91/68/EEC
(93/77/EEC)THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN  COMMUNITIES

Having regard to Council Directive 91/68/EEC of 28 January 1991 on animal health conditions governing intra-Community trade in ovine and caprine animals (1), and in particular Article 16 thereof,
Whereas, to be recognized as being officially brucellosis (B. Melitensis)-free, a Member State or a region must, among other things, have prescribed for at least five years that the disease is compulsorily notifiable and have had no cases officially  confirmed for at least five years;
Whereas in Denmark brucellosis (B. Melitensis) in ovine and caprine animals has been compulsorily notifiable only since 1 January 1990;
Whereas, however, the various forms of brucellosis of bovines have been compulsorily notifiable since 1948; whereas no cases have been officially recorded since 1959; whereas, in view of that situation, it would appear that the various forms of  brucellosis in the susceptible animal species, and in particular in ovine and caprine animals, are not found in Denmark;
Whereas, pending compliance by Denmark with the abovementioned conditions, account should be taken of the situation in Denmark with regard to the said disease; whereas, therefore, the same animal health guarantees in respect of certain ovine and caprine  animals destined for Denmark should be provided for as would be the case if Denmark was recognized as being officially free of ovine or caprine brucellosis;
Whereas a time limit should be specified for adjustment to the new arrangements; whereas the transitional measures to be laid down must be strictly necessary as regards their scope, duration and the purposes of facilitating the adjustment;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
Ovine and caprine animals for breeding and fattening destined for Denmark must satisfy the conditions laid down in Annex A, Chapter 1, (I) (D) to Directive 91/68/EEC.
This Decision shall apply until 31 December 1994.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
