BAKGRUNN (fra kommisjonsforordningen)
(1) Regulation (EU) 2017/625 lays down rules for official controls and other control activities performed by the competent authorities of the Member States in order to verify compliance with Union legislation in specific areas. In particular, Article 1(4) of Regulation (EU) 2017/625 provides that that Regulation is to apply to official controls for the verification of compliance with Article 118(1) of Regulation (EU) 2019/6 of the European Parliament and of the Council[1]. Regulation (EU) 2017/625 also provides that the Commission may require that consignments of certain animals and goods are only to enter the Union from third countries or regions thereof which appear on a list drawn up by the Commission for that purpose.
(2) Article 118(1) of Regulation (EU) 2019/6 requires that, as regards animals or products of animal origin exported from third countries to the Union, the following products are not to be used: (i) antimicrobial medicinal products for the purpose of promoting growth or to increase yield; and (ii) antimicrobial medicinal products containing an antimicrobial that is included in the list of antimicrobials reserved for the treatment of certain infections in humans laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1255.
(3) Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/905 supplements Regulation (EU) 2019/6 as regards, among other things, the conditions for the entry into the Union of consignments of certain animals and products of animal origin intended for human consumption from third countries or regions thereof, in order to ensure that they comply with the prohibition on the use of antimicrobial medicinal products for growth promotion and yield increase and of antimicrobials reserved for the treatment of certain infections in humans. Those conditions include that the consignments of animals and products of animal origin concerned may only enter the Union if they originate from a third country or a region thereof that is included in a list drawn up by the Commission for that purpose.
(4) In accordance with Article 5(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/905, that list should only include third countries or regions thereof, which have submitted appropriate evidence and guarantees that the animals and products of animal origin concerned comply with the prohibition on the use of antimicrobial medicinal products for growth promotion and yield increase and of antimicrobials reserved for treatment of certain infections in humans, including information received on the procedures in place to guarantee traceability and origin.
(5) The third countries or regions thereof which have submitted the evidence and guarantees referred to in Article 5(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/905 should therefore be included in the list of authorised third countries or regions thereof from which animals and products of animal origin may enter into the Union.
(6) The conditions for entry into the Union of consignments of animals or products of animal origin laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/905 apply as from 24 months after the date of application of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/399 . Therefore, this Regulation should also apply from 3 September 2026.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
