Whereas:
(1) The model of veterinary certificate for intra-Community trade in ovine and caprine animals for breeding is laid down as model III of Annex E to Directive 91/68/EEC.
(2) The model of veterinary certificate for imports of domestic ovine and caprine animals from third countries is laid down as ‘OVI-X’ in part 2 of Annex I to Council Decision 79/542/EEC of 21 December 1976 drawing up a list of third countries or parts of third countries, and laying down animal and public health and veterinary certification conditions, for importation into the Community of certain live animals and their fresh meat(3).
