摘要
The European Union (EU) Commission along with the 27 Member States is constructing a future Animal Health Law following the commitments of the EU Animal Health Strategy (2007-2013). The aim of this law is to lay down the general principles of animal health, animal health requirements for trade of live animals and their products and also to set the principles and measures for disease control. In this context, animal disease surveillance and biosecurity will be the main tools to achieve the prevention approach of the law. The Spanish Presidency of the EU during 2010 carried out a survey in order to assess the current EU disease surveillance programs. The results of the survey provided inputs from the Member States to the Commission in the process of constructing the new Animal Health Law. The finding of this study along with a technical seminar held in April 2010 in Seville acknowledged disease surveillance as key element in any animal health legal requirement. Therefore it should be a pillar of the future EU Animal Health Law.
