COMMISSION DECISION
of 19 December 2008
authorising methods for grading pig carcases in Denmark
(notified under document number C(2008) 8498)
(Only the Danish text is authentic)
(2009/12/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3220/84 of 13 November 1984 determining the Community scale for grading pig carcases (1), and in particular Article 5(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Under Article 2(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3220/84, the grading of pig carcases is to be determined by estimating the lean-meat content by means of statistically proven assessment methods based on the physical measurement of one or more anatomical parts of the pig carcase. The authorisation of grading methods is subject to compliance with a maximum tolerance for statistical error in assessment. This tolerance is defined in Article 3(2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2967/85 of 24 October 1985 laying down detailed rules for the application of the Community scale for grading pig carcases (2). |
(2) |
Commission Decision 92/469/EEC (3) authorises four methods for grading pig carcases in Denmark. |
(3) |
Due to technical adaptations, Denmark has asked the Commission to authorise the update of four authorised methods and the utilisation of two updated methods (Autofom DK and FOM II), and has presented the results of its dissection trials in the second part of the protocol provided for in Article 3(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2967/85. |
(4) |
Examination of this request has revealed that the conditions for authorising these grading methods are fulfilled. |
(5) |
No modification of the apparata or grading methods may be authorised except by means of a new Commission Decision adopted in the light of experience gained. For this reason, the present authorisation may be revoked. |
(6) |
For the sake of clarity, Decision 92/469/EEC should be repealed and replaced by a new decision. |
(7) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of the Agricultural Markets, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
