If one of those random samples proves positive, the competent authority carrying out the sampling must inform the competent authority of the third country of origin so that it can take appropriate measures to remedy the situation.

The competent authority of the third country of origin must bring these measures to the attention of the competent authority carrying out the sampling.

be dealt with in accordance with the procedure laid down by Article 17(2)(a) of Directive 97/78/EC; or
