THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary and zootechnical checks applicable in intra-Community trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal marketf1, and in particular Article 20(1) and (3) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 91/496/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries and amending Directives 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC and 90/675/EECf2, and in particular the last sentence of the second subparagraph of Article 6(4) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 97/78/EC of 18 December 1997 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countriesf3, and in particular Article 6(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Decision 2009/821/EC of 28 September 2009 drawing up a list of approved border inspection posts, laying down certain rules on the inspections carried out by Commission veterinary experts and laying down the veterinary units in Tracesf4 lays down a list of border inspection posts approved in accordance with Directives 91/496/EEC and 97/78/EC. That list is set out in Annex I to that Decision.

(2)

The Commission inspection service, the Food and Veterinary Office (FVO) carried out an inspection at the border inspection post at the port of Antwerp in Belgium. The results of the inspection were satisfactory. An additional inspection centre should therefore be added for that border inspection post in the list set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC. In addition, the categories of the existing inspection centres at this border inspection post should be amended.

(3)

The Commission inspection service, the Food and Veterinary Office (FVO) carried out an inspection at the border inspection post at the port of Gdańsk in Poland. The results of the inspection were satisfactory. An additional inspection centre should therefore be added for that border inspection post in the list set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(4)

Following communications from Denmark and Poland, certain inspection centres at border inspection posts for those Member States should be deleted from the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(5)

Following communication from France, the border inspection post at Brest airport should be deleted from the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC. In addition, certain categories at the border inspection posts at the airports at Lyon-Saint Exupéry, Marseille aéroport and Nice should be modified in the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(6)

Following communication from Italy, certain categories at the border inspection posts at the airports at Milano-Linate, Milano-Malpensa, Palermo, Reggio Calabria and Rimini should be suspended in the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC. In addition, certain categories at the border inspection post at the port at Napoli should be modified in the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(7)

Following communication from Latvia, the border inspection post at the port of Riga (Baltmarine Terminal) should be deleted from the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC. In addition, the listing of the categories for the two inspection centres at the approved border inspection post at Riga port should be corrected in the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(8)

Following communication from Spain, the list of border inspection posts for that Member State should be amended to take account of the suspension of two of its border inspection posts, of lifting the suspension for certain categories of products of animal origin that can be checked at one of its border inspection posts and of limiting the approval categories for products of animal origin at another one of its border inspection posts already approved in accordance with Decision 2009/821/EC.

(9)

Following communication from the Netherlands, the name of one Inspection Centre at the port of Rotterdam should be amended in the list of border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(10)

The list of central units, regional units and local units in Traces is laid down in Annex II to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(11)

Following communications from Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Latvia and Finland, certain changes to the central, regional and local units in Traces should be reflected in the Annex II to Decision 2009/821/EC for those Member States.

(12)

Decision 2009/821/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(13)

The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
