summary
The Commission's amended proposal incorporates all the European Parliament's amendments seeking to: - replace the term "physical inspections" by the broader term "quality inspections", which covers both physical and microbiological checks; - clarify the purpose of the check on geographical destination by making a distinction between a product in transit and a product actually imported into the territory of the European Union. However, the Commission rejected the amendment seeking to insert a new paragraph 3a under Article 16, stipulating that the Member States must ensure that the methods of analysis needed for the checks are standardised.�

summary
Adopting the report by Mr VAZQUEZ FOUZ, the European Parliament approved the directive presented by the Commission introducing framework Community regulations for official inspections on animal nutrition, covering all products and substances which may be used in animal nutrition. This directive is based on principles of equivalent, consistent and proportional inspections. Parliament welcomed the directive but proposed replacing the term "physical inspections" by "quality inspections". It also stressed the need to harmonise methods of analysis within the Member States as, otherwise, animal nutrition containing an unacceptable proportion of unwanted substances could be imported into certain Member States with less strict methods of analysis and then sold on the Community market. The European Parliament called for Member States to ensure that the relevant authorities carried out documentary and identity checks when products were imported so as to check: - the type of product, - the origin of the product, - the geographical destination of the product, in order to determine if it is a product in transit or a product actually being imported into the territory of the European Union.�

COM(1993)0510
summary
This proposal sought to fix at Community level the principles governing the organisation of official inspections in the field of animal nutrition. It centred on the following principles: - coverage of all products and substances used in animal nutrition; - introduction of certain general principles (equivalent, consistent and proportional inspections); - systematic random documentary and identity checks on products from third countries entering the Community; - more rigorous inspections at the place of origin and the organisation of checks at the place of destination within the framework of intra-Community trade; - establishing cooperation amongst Member States in cases where an offence has been committed, and the introduction of inspections on agricultural premises; - steps to be taken following checks, settlement of disputes and system of safeguards; - recommendation of monitoring programmes coordinated at Community level, free choice for Member States of the practical methods they use to implement them. �
