Abstract
The competent local veterinary authorities shall ensure that all farms rearing bivalve molluscs are registered by the official service, and keep a record of live bivalve molluscs entering and leaving the farm. A monitoring and sampling programme should apply in bivalve mollusc farms in order to observe whether there is an abnormal mortality and to keep track of the health situation of stocks. Sampling and laboratory testing for the determination of the cause of abnormal mortality of bivalve molluscs shall be carried out. The national reference laboratory for diseases of bivalve molluscs is indicated in Annex C of the present Order. Also, by this Order Annex B of Presidential Order No. 223/1995 is amended.
