PURPOSE: to amend Council Directive 92/66/EEC
introducing Community measures for the control of Newcastle
disease, in order to bring it into line with the Treaty on the
Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and the new official
control provisions in force.
PROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and
of the Council.
ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: the European
Parliament decides in accordance with the ordinary legislative
procedure on an equal footing with the Council.
BACKGROUND: Council
Directive 92/66/EEC lays down the measures to be applied in the
event of an outbreak of Newcastle disease in poultry and certain
birds. The Directive confers on the Council, acting by a qualified
majority on a proposal from the Commission, the power to amend the
Directives Annexes.
Thus, the Council may amend Annexes V, VI and VII to
Directive 92/66/EEC which set out respectively (i) the indication
of the European Union reference laboratory for Newcastle disease as
well as its functions and duties, (ii) the model form to be used by
Member States in order to report on the disease situation and the
control measures applied; and (iii) the criteria to be applied by
Member States for drawing up contingency plans specifying the
national measures to be implemented in the event of an outbreak the
disease.
It is necessary to simplify and streamline the
procedures regarding the control of Newcastle disease, in
particular taking into account the new rules in relation to the
designation of European Union reference laboratories provided for
by Article 93 of Regulation
(EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council,
and also the new system of implementing acts provided for in
Article 291 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union
(TFEU).
The current European reference laboratory (EURL) for
Newcastle disease is located in the United Kingdom. Hence, it needs
to be replaced by an EURL located in one of the other 27 Member
States in view of the United Kingdom exiting the EU. The
current procedure for designating an EURL for Newcastle disease is
via a Council Directive. This technical revision of the Directive
92/66/EEC will enable the use of the required implementing
procedure to designate a new EURL for Newcastle disease within
the tight deadlines related to BREXIT.
CONTENT: the aim of this proposal is to amend
Council Directive 92/66/EEC in order to ensure consistency with the
TFEU and the new provisions on official controls with a view to
simplifying procedures. It aims to delete Annexes V, VI and VII of
that Directive and to confer on the Commission implementing powers
in the matters covered by those Annexes. These powers should be
exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the
European Parliament and of the Council (comitology
Regulation).
The proposal provides that the Commission shall
designate, by means of implementing acts, a European Union
reference laboratory for Newcastle disease. For the sake of
clarity, it sets out the function and duties of the European Union
reference laboratory for Newcastle Disease as well as the criteria
applicable to the contingency plans to be established by Member
States in the event of the onset of the disease.
