Division 5
United Kingdom
However, if the further checks and tests referred to in subparagraph 4 do not allow classical swine fever to be ruled out, further blood sampling for serological testing shall be carried out in the holding after at least two weeks have elapsed from the previous checks.
In the framework of this further sampling, the pigs already sampled and tested shall be re-sampled for a comparative serological testing with the previously collected samples to detect sero-conversion for classical swine fever virus or for ruminant pestiviruses, if any.
If these further checks and tests do not allow classical swine fever to be confirmed, the measures referred to in Article 4 of Directive 2001/89/EC may be lifted.
