THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 37 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee(2),
Whereas:
(1) Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the veterinary field(3) provides for the possibility of the Community's making a financial contribution to the Member States for the eradication of certain animal diseases. Currently, that Decision also provides for the possibility of a financial contribution from the Community for the eradication of infectious salmon anaemia (ISA) and infectious haematopoietic necrosis (IHN), both of which diseases affect salmonides.
(2) Disease control actions for ISA and IHN are eligible for Community financial contribution only under Council Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999 of 17 December 1999 laying down the detailed rules and arrangements regarding Community structural assistance in the fisheries sector(4).
(3) In the light of the adoption of Council Directive 2006/88/EC of 24 October 2006 on animal health requirements for aquaculture animals and products thereof, and on the prevention and control of certain diseases in aquatic animals(5), it is appropriate to amend Decision 90/424/EEC so that Community financial contributions can also be granted for eradication measures carried out by the Member States to combat other diseases in aquaculture animals, subject to Community control provisions.
(4) Member States can receive financial contributions to support their national fisheries and aquaculture sector under Council Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 of 27 July 2006 on the European Fisheries Fund(6). Article 32 of that Regulation authorises Member States to allocate funds for the eradication of diseases in aquaculture under the terms of Decision 90/424/EEC.
(5) The funds for the eradication of diseases in aquaculture animals should be allocated within the operational programmes set up under Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006, the budget for which is fixed at the beginning of the programming period.
(6) Financial contributions from the Community for disease control purposes in aquaculture animals should be subject to scrutiny regarding compliance with the control provisions laid down in Directive 2006/88/EC, in accordance with the same procedures as those that apply for such scrutiny and control for certain terrestrial animal diseases.
(7) It is therefore appropriate to apply the procedures for financial contribution laid down in Decision 90/424/EEC also to the use of financial contribution for the control of diseases in aquaculture animals under Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006.
(8) It is appropriate for this Decision to become applicable at the same time as Directive 2006/88/EC.
(9) Decision 90/424/EEC should therefore be amended accordingly,
