Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/134
of 30 January 2020
amending the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47 on protective measures in relation to highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N8 in certain Member States
(notified under document C(2020) 604)
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 89/662/EEC of 11 December 1989 concerning veterinary checks in intra-Community trade with a view to the completion of the internal market(1), and in particular Article 9(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary checks applicable in intra-Union trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market(2), and in particular Article 10(4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47(3) was adopted following outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N8 in holdings where poultry are kept in Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania, and the establishment of protection and surveillance zones by those Member States in accordance with Council Directive 2005/94/EC(4).
(2) Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47 provides that the protection and surveillance zones established by the Member States listed in the Annex to that Implementing Decision, in accordance with Directive 2005/94/EC, are to comprise at least the areas listed as protection and surveillance zones in that Annex.
(3) The Annex to Implementing Decision 2020/47/EC was recently amended by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/114(5), following instances of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N8 in poultry in Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Czechia and Romania that needed to be reflected in that Annex.
(4) Since the date of adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/114, Poland has notified the Commission of additional outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N8 in holdings where poultry are kept, in the Szamotulski, Ostrowski and Iławski districts.
(5) In addition, Slovakia has notified the Commission of an additional outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N8 in a holding where poultry are kept in the Čadca district.
(6) The new outbreaks in Poland and Slovakia are outside the areas currently listed in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47, and the competent authorities of those Member States have taken the necessary measures required in accordance with Directive 2005/94/EC, including the establishment of protection and surveillance zones around those new outbreaks.
(7) The Commission has examined the measures taken by Poland and Slovakia in accordance with Directive 2005/94/EC and it is satisfied that the boundaries of the protection and surveillance zones, established by the competent authorities of those Member States, are at a sufficient distance to the holdings where outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N8 have been confirmed.
(8) In order to prevent any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union and to avoid unjustified barriers to trade being imposed by third countries, it is necessary to rapidly describe at Union level, in collaboration with Poland and Slovakia, the new protection and surveillance zones established by those Member States in accordance with Directive 2005/94/EC. Therefore, the protection and surveillance zones listed for Poland and Slovakia, in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47, should be amended.
(9) Accordingly, the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47 should be amended to update regionalisation at Union level to include the new protection and surveillance zones established by Poland and Slovakia, in accordance with Directive 2005/94/EC, and the duration of the restrictions applicable therein.
(10) Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(11) Given the urgency of the epidemiological situation in the Union as regards the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N8, it is important that the amendments made to the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/47 by this Decision should take effect as soon as possible.
(12) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
