Commission Implementing Decision

of 14 July 2011

approving certain amended programmes for the eradication and monitoring of animal diseases and zoonoses for the year 2011 and amending Decision 2010/712/EU as regards the financial contribution from the Union for certain programmes approved by that Decision

(notified under document C(2011) 4993)

(2011/416/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Decision 2009/470/EC of 25 May 2009 on expenditure in the veterinary field(1), and in particular Article 27(5) and (6) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Decision 2009/470/EC lays down the procedures governing the Union financial contribution for programmes for the eradication, control and monitoring of animal diseases and zoonoses.

(2) Commission Decision 2008/341/EC of 25 April 2008 laying down Community criteria for national programmes for the eradication, control and monitoring of certain animal diseases and zoonoses(2) provides that in order to be approved under the Union financial measures programmes submitted by the Member States must meet at least the criteria set out in the Annex to that Decision.

(3) Commission Decision 2010/712/EU of 23 November 2010 approving annual and multiannual programmes and the financial contribution from the Union for the eradication, control and monitoring of certain animal diseases and zoonoses presented by the Member States for 2011 and following years(3) approves certain national programmes and sets out the rate and maximum amount of financial contribution from the Union for each programme submitted by the Member States.

(4) Spain submitted an amended programme for the monitoring and eradication of bluetongue to introduce compulsory vaccination against serotype 8 in certain regions following outbreaks of that disease.

(5) Slovakia submitted an amended vaccination programme for the eradication of rabies to extend the area in which baits are distributed, following the occurrence of the disease in bordering areas of Poland.

(6) Poland and Finland have submitted amended programmes for the eradication of rabies to include oral vaccination activities in certain areas of neighbouring third countries adjacent to the Union, in order to protect the Union from a reintroduction of rabies through the movement of infected wild animals across the common borders.

(7) The Commission has assessed the amended programmes submitted by Spain, Poland, Slovakia and Finland from both the veterinary and the financial point of view. The programmes were found to comply with relevant Union veterinary legislation and in particular with the criteria set out in Decision 2008/341/EC.

(8) The amended programmes submitted by Spain, Poland, Slovakia and Finland should therefore be approved.

(9) Decision 2010/712/EU provides for a financial contribution from the Union for Slovakia for those oral vaccination activities included in the annual programme for the eradication of rabies in that Member State that are implemented in bordering areas of neighbouring third countries. In addition, that Decision provides for a financial contribution from the Union for Lithuania for those oral vaccination activities included in the multiannual programme for the eradication of rabies in that Member State that are implemented in bordering areas of neighbouring third countries.

(10) It is therefore appropriate to also provide for a financial contribution from the Union for those parts of the programmes for the eradication of rabies in Poland and Finland that are implemented in bordering areas of neighboring third countries adjacent to the Union.

(11) The approval by this Decision of the amended programmes for the eradication of rabies submitted by Poland and Finland has an impact on the amounts needed for carrying out the programmes for those Member States as approved under Decision 2010/712/EU. The maximum amount of Union financial contribution for the programmes for the eradication of rabies in Poland and Finland, laid down in that Decision, should therefore be adjusted accordingly.

(12) Decision 2010/712/EU should therefore be amended accordingly.

(13) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
