THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on zootechnical and genealogical conditions for the breeding, trade in and entry into the Union of purebred breeding animals, hybrid breeding pigs and the germinal products thereof and amending Regulation (EU) No 652/2014, Council Directives 89/608/EEC and 90/425/EEC and repealing certain acts in the area of animal breeding (‘Animal Breeding Regulation’)1, and in particular Article 7(5) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Article 7(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1012 provides that Member States are to draw up and keep up-to-date a list of breed societies and breeding operations that their competent authorities have recognised in accordance with Article 4(3) of that Regulation and which implement at least one breeding programme that has been approved in accordance with Article 8(3) of that Regulation. Moreover, Regulation (EU) 2016/1012 provides that Member States are to make that list available to the public.

(2)

Articles 7(2) and 19(5) of and point 2 of Chapter III of Part 1 of Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2016/1012 specify the information to be included in the list of recognised breed societies and breeding operations.

(3)

In addition, Article 7(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1012 provides that Member States are also to include in the list of recognised breed societies and breeding operations any competent authority which carries out a breeding programme in accordance with Article 38 of that Regulation.

(4)

Therefore, it is necessary to establish model forms to be used by Member States for the listing of breed societies for purebred breeding animals of the bovine, porcine, ovine, caprine and equine species and breeding operations for hybrid breeding pigs recognised by their competent authorities in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/1012.

(5)

Taking into account the role of Member States in recognising a breed as an endangered breed, in accordance with the definition set out in Article 2(24) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1012, it is necessary to include that information in the lists of recognised breed societies provided for in that Regulation.

(6)

To facilitate trade in breeding animals and the official controls carried out by competent authorities, it is also necessary to indicate in the list of recognised breed societies and breeding operations provided for in Article 7 of Regulation (EU) 2016/1012 the dates when recognition was granted or withdrawn, taking into account the provisions of Article 64(4) of that Regulation, or when approval of a breeding programme was given, suspended or withdrawn.

(7)

This Regulation should be applicable from 1 November 2018 in accordance with the date of application provided for in Regulation (EU) 2016/1012.

(8)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Zootechnics,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The information to be included in the lists of recognised breed societies and breeding operations provided for in Article 7 of Regulation (EU) 2016/1012 shall be presented in accordance with the model forms set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

It shall apply from 1 November 2018.
