Article 8U.K.Epidemiological enquiry

Member States shall ensure that the epidemiological enquiry in relation to suspected cases or outbreaks of classical swine fever is carried out on the basis of questionnaires, prepared within the framework of the contingency plans referred to in Article 22.

Such enquiry shall deal at least with:

(a)

the length of time during which classical swine fever virus may have existed on the holding before the disease was notified or suspected;

(b)

the possible origin of classical swine fever on the holding and the identification of other holdings in which pigs may have become infected or contaminated from the same source;

(c)

the movement of persons, vehicles, pigs, carcases, semen, meat or any material which could have transported the virus to or from the holdings in question.

If the results of this enquiry suggest that classical swine fever may have spread from or to holdings located in other Member States, the Commission and the Member States concerned shall be immediately informed.
