THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 89/361/EEC of 30 May 1989 concerning pure-bred breeding sheep and goats(1), and in particular the second indent of Article 4 thereof,

Whereas in all Member States flock-books are maintained or established by breeders' organizations, or associations or official services;

Whereas it is therefore necessary to lay down the criteria for the entering of pure-breed breeding sheep and goats in flock-books;

Whereas precise conditions relating to lineage and identification must be fulfilled prior to entry in the flock-books;

Whereas allowances should be made for the division of the flock-book into different classes so that certain types of animals will not be excluded;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Zootechnics,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
