Seventeen of those establishments are allowed to receive and process compliant and non-compliant raw milk without separation. They should therefore be included in the list of Chapter I of the Appendix to Annex VI. One milk-processing establishment currently listed in Chapter I will process only compliant raw milk and will therefore be considered as an EU-approved milk-processing establishment. That establishment should therefore be deleted from the list of Chapter I of the Appendix to Annex VI. Two milk-processing establishments currently listed in Chapter II will process only compliant raw milk. These establishments should therefore be deleted from the list of Chapter II of the appendix to Annex VI.\n(3)\nThe Appendix to Annex VI to the Act of Accession of Bulgaria and Romania should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(4)\nThe measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
