Whereas:
(1) Directive 2000/29/EC provides for certain measures against the spread within the Community of organisms which are harmful to plants or plant products. It also provides for the use of plant passports, giving evidence that the plants or plant products have successfully undergone the Community checking system.
(2) Plant passports are currently required for moving certified seeds of Helianthus annuus L., Lycopersicon lycopersicum (L.) Karsten ex Farw. and Phaseolus L. within the Community, other than locally.

Karsten ex Farw. and Phaseolus L., the requirement that seeds have to be accompanied by a plant passport when moved within the Community, other than locally, should be applied to all seeds of those species.
(4) Annex V to Directive 2000/29/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plant Health,
