Animal diseases: control of foot-and-mouth disease, reserves of vaccines (amend. Decision 666/91/EEC)

The Council was informed by Commissioner BYRNE on protective measures adopted following the cases of foot and mouth disease in the United Kingdom and France, especially those applying to these two countries. The Council also had an exchange of views on vaccination against foot and mouth disease. It noted the Commission's intention to propose a Regulation on foot and mouth disease, which would provide an opportunity to review current policies. �
