COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/723

of 2 May 2019

laying down rules for the application of Regulation (EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the standard model form to be used in the annual reports submitted by Member States

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 March 2017 on official controls and other official activities performed to ensure the application of food and feed law, rules on animal health and welfare, plant health and plant protection products, amending Regulations (EC) No 999/2001, (EC) No 396/2005, (EC) No 1069/2009, (EC) 1107/2009, (EU) No 1151/2012, (EU) No 652/2014, (EU) 2016/429 and (EU) 2016/2031 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Regulations (EC) No 1/2005 and (EC) No 1099/2009 and Council Directives 98/58/EC, 1999/74/EC, 2007/43/EC, 2008/119/EC and 2008/120/EC, and repealing Regulations (EC) No 854/2004 and (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Directives 89/608/EEC, 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC, 91/496/EEC, 96/23/EC, 96/93/EC and 97/78/EC and Council Decision 92/438/EEC (Official Controls Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 113(2) and point (f) of the first paragraph of Article 134 thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Article 113(1) of Regulation (EU) 2017/625 provides that each Member State is to submit to the Commission, by 31 August every year, an annual report on its official controls, cases of non-compliance and implementation of its multi-annual national control plan (MANCP). The first such report is to be submitted by 31 August 2021.

 

(2)

A standard model form should be adopted in order to ensure the uniform presentation of Member States' annual reports.

 

(3)

The standard model form to be used in the annual reports submitted by Member States should integrate other existing standard model forms adopted by the Commission for the submission of reports on official controls that the competent authorities are required to submit to the Commission in accordance with the rules referred to in Article 1(2) of Regulation (EU) 2017/625. This is to avoid multiple reporting and creating unnecessary administrative burdens.

 

(4)

It should be mandatory for Member States to complete the standard model form in electronic format as this will facilitate the compilation of information and data, as well as avoid transcription errors.

 

(5)

To allow for the use of advanced communication and the most efficient use of the data and information contained in the annual reports, the standard model form should be provided in the computerised information management system for official controls (IMSOC) and Member States should transmit the annual reports using IMSOC.

 

(6)

The standard model form sets out certain information and data to be reported by Member States to the Commission, including information and data on the welfare of animals kept for farming purposes. Commission Decision 2006/778/EC (2) currently sets out the requirements for the collection of information during the inspections of production sites on which certain animals are kept for farming purposes and the reporting of such information to the Commission. In the interests of coherence and legal certainty, Decision 2006/778/EC should therefore be repealed and replaced by this Regulation.

 

(7)

The standard model form also includes information and data on the protection of animals during transport to be reported by the Member States to the Commission. Commission Implementing Decision 2013/188/EU (3) currently lays down rules on the annual...
