Mr. Cawsey: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what progress has been made in implementing the
Animal Health (Amendment) Act 1998. [142777]
Mr. Bradshaw: The Animal Health (Amendment) Act 1998 extended the scope of the Order-making powers relating to importation in the
Animal Health Act 1981 to cover the welfare of animals in quarantine. Between December 2000 and March 2001, MAFF undertook a
consultation exercise on proposals for legislation to update the law on quarantine by reforming the quarantine rules to bring
quarantine kennels up to the best modern practice and by introducing statutory welfare provisions.
Owing to the impact on resources of the foot and mouth disease outbreak during 2001, follow-up to that consultation was deferred.
Since then, we have reached agreement on the EU Regulation on the movement of pet animals which will require some changes to the
quarantine legislation. We are also preparing for consultation on an Animal Welfare Bill. We shall therefore need to review the
proposed changes to the quarantine legislation to take account of these and other developments. I expect to complete the review in
the first part of 2004.

Norman Baker: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what conditions apply to the import of live
pheasants from (a) the EU and (b) countries not in the EU. [105606]
Mr. Morley: Council Directive 90/539/EEC sets out animal health conditions concerning intra Community trade in live poultry,
including pheasants. Pheasants entering the UK from EU Member States must be accompanied by an export health certificate, which is
issued by the Veterinary Authorities in the country of the origin. The export health certificate confirms that the Official
Veterinarian has examined the pheasants and they meet the necessary health conditions specified in Council Directive 90/539/EEC.
The Veterinary Authorities in the exporting Member State informs the appropriate local animal health office in the UK by an ANIMO
message (animal movement system) that a health certificate has been signed and a consignment of birds is on its way. In addition,
the importer in the UK must give at least 24 hours notice in writing to the Divisional Veterinary Manager responsible for the place
of destination, of his intention to import the birds, the nature of the consignment, its anticipated date of arrival and the place
of destination.
Council Directive 96/482/EEC lays down animal health conditions and veterinary certificates for the import of poultry, including
pheasants, from Third Countries. Import of pheasants into the UK is allowed only from those Third Countries which can provide
assurances supported by appropriate documents, or as a result of on-the-spot inspections, satisfy the necessary animal health
conditions required by the UK and the European Commission. Pheasants entering the EU from Third Countries must be accompanied by an
export health certificate issued by an Official Veterinarian in the country of origin. The health certificate confirms that the
Official Veterinarian in the country of the origin has inspected the pheasants and they meet all the conditions specified in Council
Directive 96/482/EEC. There is a post import isolation of 42 days. The State Veterinary Staff in the UK carry out at least six
veterinary checks on the pheasants imported from Third Countries in the first 14 days after import. The Veterinary Laboratories
Agency in Weybridge carries out tests on sick and dead pheasants to identify any possible disease. In addition, the local Divisional
Veterinary Manager will receive an ANIMO message and import notification in the same way as EU imports.
