THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1774/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 3 October 2002 laying down health rules concerning animal by-products not intended for human consumption(1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 808/2003(2), and in particular the second paragraph of Article 28, Article 29(3) and Article 32(1),
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 1774/2002 provides that certain processed products that may be used as feed material and petfood, dogchews and technical products may be imported into the Community provided that they comply with the relevant requirements of that Regulation.
(2) Following the Scientific Steering Committee's opinion of 10 and 11 May 2001 on the safety of collagen it is appropriate to lay down the specific hygiene conditions to be applied for the processing and marketing of collagen that may be used as feed material. Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 1774/2002 which sets out specific hygiene requirements for the processing and placing on the market of processed animal protein and other processed products that could be used as feed material should therefore be amended accordingly.
(3) Annex VIII to Regulation (EC) No 1774/2002 sets out requirements for the placing on the market of petfood, dogchews and technical products. It is necessary to amend that Annex, in order to introduce some technical amendments, to include the marking requirements of Article 28 of that Regulation for by-products intended for petfood derived from animals which have been treated with certain substances, and to clarify the import requirements applicable to fat derivatives and to certain processed products associated with the production of petfood, known as ‘flavouring innards’. Annex VIII should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4) Annex X to Regulation (EC) No 1774/2002 sets out a model health certificate for the importation from third countries of certain animal by-products and products derived therefrom. It is necessary to amend that Annex, in order to create additional models of importation certificates and to review the existing models to introduce some technical amendments including animal health considerations. Annex X should therefore be amended accordingly.
(5) Annex XI to Regulation (EC) No 1774/2002 sets out lists of third countries from which Member States may authorise imports of animal by-products not intended for human consumption. In the interests of clarity of Community legislation, those lists should in the near future be consolidated and combined with the lists of countries from which Member States are authorised to import products of various animal species which are already established under Community legislation for public health and animal health purposes. In the meantime, it is already appropriate to clarify and update the references made in Annex XI to those lists and Annex XI should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
