summary
In adopting the resolution by Mrs Marit PAULSEN (ELDR, S) approving the common position, the Parliament has adopted a compromise amendment tabled by PSE, ELDR, Greens/ALE and GUE/NGL, Parliament pointed out that the illegal use of waste from kitchens, restaurants catering facilities in pig feeding has been critically mentioned in connection with swine fever and foot-and-mouth disease. In order to reduce the risk of spreading animal diseases, a conditional ban on the use of catering waste for feeding, providing for a registered and controlled disposal and treatment of catering waste, was considered to be more effective than a general ban which could not be sufficiently controlled. With regard to that ban, the Commission should submit a legislative proposal before the entry into force of this Regulation to ensure the safe use and disposal of certain types of catering waste. Member States shall take the necessary steps to ensure that Category 3 catering waste is collected, transported and disposed of without harming the environment. Member States currently permitting the use of certain types of catering waste under strictly controlled circumstances may continue to do so for a transitional period of not more than four years. The Commission shall lay down rules for the use of catering waste in order to ensure that there is no undue risk to animal or public health during this transition period. Member States shall also be required to provide the Commission with details of the control systems in place and information regarding the safe disposal of catering waste during the transitional period.�

summary
The Commission has presented an amended proposal, following developments in Council and the Parliament. On the main issues, it comments as follows: -prohibition of intraspecies recycling: please refer to the previous documents. This prohibition was recently recommended by the Scientific Steering Committee as a precautionary measure. -traceability: the Parliament's amendments which introduce additional requirements to improve traceability of products have been taken into account. Please refer to previous documents on the issue of SRM and markers on cadavers. The marking of unprocessed category 2 material, including manure has not been taken into account for the same reasons. Cross contamination: please refer to the common position. Parliament's amendments have been taken into account. Derogation for burial and burning: please refer to the common position, which takes into account Parliament's amendments. Incinerators/review of methods of disposal: the Parliament's amendments have been taken into account. Catering waste: please refer to the previous documents. Catering waste from international means of transport belongs to the highest risk category 1 and shall be destroyed as already required by existing Community legislation. Manure and prohibition of spreading organic fertilisers on pasture land: Parliament's amendments clarifying that a harmonised health certificate for the trade of manure shall be laid down by Comitology have been taken into account. Processing standards before incineration: the amendment requiring the use of pressure cooking standards for animal by-products even if the resulting by-product is burned has been taken into account by amending Articles 4 and 5, but this process should be used before incineration if required by the national competent authority. Rendered fats: please refer to the common position. Entry into force: Parliament's amendments have been taken into account. Exportation: please refer to the common position. Refrigeration: Parliament's amendments on refrigeration of raw category 3 material during storage and transportation have been taken into account , but it is proposed to limit the requirement of refrigeration only to raw material which is not processed within 24 hours from the slaughter.�

summary
The Council adopted the common position by qualified majority. Two Member States voted against, because the Regulation does not expressly prohibit the use of processed animal protein and fats in feed and because the Regulation prohibits the use of catering waste in swill feed. The other main issues: -animal feed: the Council agrees with the Parliament on the prohibition of intra-species recycling. There is the possibility to derogate from this in order to allow the feeding of fish with fishmeal and the feeding of fur animals with products derived from fur animal carcasses. This derogation may be granted only following scientific advice. -catering waste: this is introduced in the scope of the Regulation, but only when it is destined for specific purposes in order to avoid duplication with environmental legislation or to avoid hindering the development of new environmental rules on biodegradable waste. A definition of catering waste is introduced, which includes waste from household kitchen. The Council does not accept Parliament's amendment allowing the continuation of swill feeding using catering waste. -Cross-contamination: the Council agrees with Parliament. -traceability: the Council agrees with Parliament on the need to introduce additional requirements to improve the traceability of products or to strengthen the requirements on traceability established by the Commission proposal. Marking of unprocessed Category 1 and 2 animal by-products is not accepted, as applying markers to cadavers or to manure is not practical and brings no additional benefits. -Incineration/review of methods of disposal: the Council agrees with Parliament. -Derogation for burial and burning: the Council agrees on the need for introducing a derogation for burning or burial of cadavers and Specified Risk Material in remote areas and in case of serious transmissible diseases because of the danger of propagating health risks or lack of disposal capacity. -rendered fats, fats derivatives and fertilisers: The Council agrees with Parliament on the need to prohibit the use of rendered fats from category 2 material for the production of fat derivatives for the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industry. The Council does not accept the amendment aimed at restricting the import of ruminant fats due to a TSE risk - this is regulated by the TSE regulation. -Exports and transits: the Council agrees with Parliament on prohibiting the export of Category 1 and Category 2 material, with clarification on products such as game trophies which are exported to third countries. -Most of Parliament's amendments are agreed, except some related to recitals, as they were not matched by the text. �

summary
In adopting the report of Marit PAULSEN (ELDR, S) (see previous document), the European Parliament voted for its resolution by 495 to 10 with 17 abstentions. With regard to waste incineration, the European Parliament believes that new rules must be included and that the reference to the 1976 directive, proposed by the Commission is erroneous. An amendment was adopted demanding that by June 2002, the Commission should present a legislative proposal in order to ban the use of swill, unless the competent authorities in the Member States can guarantee its appropriate treatment with proper sterilisation standards, sufficient to kill the swine fever and the FMD virus. In order to reduce the risk of speading animal diseases, a conditional ban on swill, foreseeing a registered and controlled disposal of catering waste was considered to be more effective than a general ban which could not be controlled in an efficient way. �

summary
PURPOSE: to propose a laying down the health rules concerning animal by-products not intended for human consumption. CONTENT: The key issue of this proposal is the prohibition of recycling certain animal by-products into the feed chain, namely dead animals and condemned animal material. The only raw material allowed to be used for the production of animal feed would then be material derived from animals declared fit for human consumption. Furthermore, this proposal: - introduces a number of alternative methods for the use or disposal of animal by-products; - strengthens rules on controls and traceability of animal by-products; - establishes a link with Environmental Community Legislation; - creates a new legal framework for the animal by-products sector; - simplifies existing Community legislation creating a consolidated legislative act dealing with all animal by-products not intended for human consumption. With regard to the use or disposal of these animal products, alternative methods include incineration, co-incineration (i.e. burning a fuel), landfill, composting and fish ensilage, biogas, fertilisers and oleo-chemical industry. Moreover, some of these alternative methods of use or disposal allow a recovery cost. With regard to financing rules, there is a wide variety of approaches to the financial report for the processing and disposal of animal by-products. In order to avoid that this situation could affect the conditions of competition between agricultural products, the proposal establishes that a report shall be prepared by the Commission on this issue, accompanied by appropriate proposals. Finally, the proposal presents an opportunity to clarify the reltionship between the Animal Waste Directive and the Framework Directive on Waste and to create a link between the two. In conclusion, this proposal for a Regulation is an Action of the White Paper for Food Safety (Action 30).�
