DRAFT Commission Decision published

As indicated in the last update, the Decision voted last week was published on the Official Journal on Saturday, with the number 2007/588/EC.

DRAFT Commission Decision voted

The new DRAFT amends the annexes to Decision 2007/554/EC.

Standing Committee 23 August

Please find here below a press release just published by the Commission Services on the DRAFT Commission Decision voted this morning at the Standing Committee. Relaxation of the measures is confirmed and concerns live animals as well. See the press release for details.

General situation

The situation is constantly improving in the UK. No new outbreaks have been recorded and both the temporary control zones (based on suspicions) set up outside the surveillance zone in Surrey and Kent were lifted a few days ago, because the infection with FMD virus was excluded.

Debby Reynolds, Chief Veterinary Officer, has yesterday (15th August) set out the following:

• the latest Epidemiological Report;
• changes to current restrictions on animal movement in support of welfare; and
• the standing down of vaccination teams, provided that initial negative results from the current Temporary Control Zones (TCZs) in Kent and Surrey are followed by negative results from the final tests.
