Abstract
These Regulations implement in Ireland Council Directive 90/425/EEC concerning veterinary and zootechnical checks applicable in intra-Community trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market. The intra-Community trade rules shall apply to trade between member States in live animals and animal products which are the subject of an instrument in Part I of Schedule 3, except aquaculture products for human consumption controlled by Council Directive 91/67/EEC. They make it an offence to export, import or transport for intra-Community trade any animal or animal product to which Directive 90/425/EEC applies except in accordance with specified exceptions.
The Regulations also provide a legal basis for the Poultry Health Scheme regarding approval and monitoring poultry establishments engaging in intra-Community trade of poultry and hatching eggs.
The Regulations prohibit the importation of any animal from a third country unless the conditions of Council Directive 91/496/EEC and the relevant provisions of the EU Instruments, together with any additional requirements, listed in Part II of Schedule 7 to these Regulations are complied with.
