Having regard to Council Directive 91/496/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries and amending Directives 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC and 90/675/EEC [2], and in particular the second sentence of the second subparagraph of Article 6(4) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 97/78/EC of 18 December 1997 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countries [3], and in particular Article 6(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(2) Following communication from Denmark, new categories of products of animal origin that can be checked at the approved border inspection posts at the ports at ?rhus and Esbjerg should be added in the entries for these border inspection posts set out in Annex I to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(3) Spain has communicated that one of its border inspection posts has been suspended, the suspension for certain categories of products of animal origin that can be checked at one of its border inspection posts has been lifted and one new inspection centre was added to one of its border inspection posts. Following that communication from Spain, the list of border inspection posts for that Member State should be amended.

(4) Italy has communicated that for one of its border inspection posts the category for unpacked products of animal origin has been added and three inspection centres at one of its border inspection posts have changed their names.

(6) The Netherlands has communicated that the name of one inspection centre at a certain border inspection post has changed and that two inspection centres have been installed at a certain border inspection post. In addition, certain categories of animals and products of animal origin that can be checked at one inspection centre at the border inspection post at the port at Rotterdam should be added. Following that communication from the Netherlands, the list of border inspection posts for that Member State should be amended.

(7) Following communication from the United Kingdom, the approval of the border inspection post at the port at Grove Wharf Wharton should be removed from the list of border inspection posts for that Member State.

(8) Annex II to Decision 2009/821/EC lays down the list of central units, regional units and local units in the integrated computerised veterinary system (Traces).

(9) Following communication from Germany, Ireland, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal and the United Kingdom, certain changes should be brought to the list of central, regional and local units in Traces for those Member States laid down in Annex II to Decision 2009/821/EC.

(10) Decision 2009/821/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
