OVS听note: 2025/22
14 March 2025
1. Purpose
To notify of amendments to the and listings to recognise controlled housing conditions for Trichinella for certain EU member states.
2. Background
Following engagement with the European Commission, the UK Office for SPS Trade Assurance has identified that recognition of Trichinella controlled housing conditions was incorrectly removed from the entries for several EU member states in the and listings in October 2022.
To rectify this administrative error, the UK Office for SPS Trade Assurance has amended its listings on 14 March 2025 to recognise trichinella controlled housing conditions for all EU member states. This has been achieved by amending the:
- listing to apply specific condition 鈥榅I鈥�, relating to controlled housing conditions in accordance with Article 8 of EUR 2015/1375, to all entries covering parts of EU member states with model certificates POR-X or POR-Y attached to their listing
- listing to apply supplementary guarantee 鈥楰鈥�, relating to controlled housing conditions in accordance with Article 8 of EUR 2015/1375, to all entries covering parts of EU member states with model certificates POR, SUF or SUW attached to their listing.
