Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 119/2009(2) lays down the public and animal health conditions and certification requirements for the introduction into the Union of consignments of certain meat of wild leporidae, of wild land mammals and of farmed rabbits.

Taking into account the guarantees provided by the United Kingdom, that third country should be listed in Part 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 119/2009.
(3) Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 119/2009 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4) As the transition period provided for in the Withdrawal Agreement ends on 31 December 2020, this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2021.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
