Having regard to Council Directive 89/556/EEC of 25 September 1989 on animal health conditions governing intra-Community trade in and importation from third countries of embryos of domestic animals of the bovine species1, and in particular Article 8(1) thereof,

(3)

Decision 92/452/EEC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5)
