  • INDIVIDUAL SANITARY MEASURE Denmark Daniel Oestmann And
    DECISION MEMORANDUM— INDIVIDUAL SANITARY MEASURE Denmark Daniel Oestmann and Priya Kadam David Smith and Kevin Gillespie EQUIVALENCE REQUEST: Denmark requested an equivalence determination for an alternative post-mortem inspection i.e. visual inspection instead of palpation and incision of lung and liver and their associated lymph nodes of slaughtered market hogs. For purposes of determining equivalence, Danish market hogs are of the 220-240 pounds /six months of age range; the alternative post-mortem inspection procedure is not applicable to sows, boars, and roaster pigs. BACKGROUND: On December 16, 2008 in an FSIS-Denmark bilateral meeting a team of FSIS experts met and reviewed Denmark’s Supply Chain Inspection system, and presentations by Danish officials. The Supply Chain Inspection system allows inspection of market hogs raised under an integrated quality control program coupled with an on-site verification at slaughter establishments of visually inspected carcasses and organs to ensure that passed carcasses and parts are wholesome and not adulterated. As a part of this inspection system, on December 24, 2008, FSIS approved Denmark’s use of an alternative post- mortem inspection procedure omitting the incision of mandibular lymph nodes for market hogs used to detect granulomatous lymphadenitis which is mitigated through on-farm controls that are assessed and reported through government oversight when hogs come to slaughter. As a part of this Supply Chain Inspection system, in April 2010, Denmark proposed another alternate visual only post mortem inspection procedure, omitting the palpation of mesenteric lymph nodes of slaughtered market hogs used to detect granulomatous lymphadenitis is mitigated through on-farm controls that are assessed and reported through government oversight when hogs come to slaughter.

Happily, Denmark’s contribution to the European Union is far more extensive and will, undoubtedly, be in the spotlight throughout the fi rst half of 2012! A modern state, where European and international sea routes converge, Denmark has frequently drawn on its talents and fl ourishing economy to make its own, distinctive mark. It is in tune with the priorities for 2020: competitiveness, social inclusion and the need for ecologically sustainable change.

    The Regime of Passage Through the Danish Straits Alex G. Oude Elferink* Netherlands Institute for the Law of the Sea, Utrecht University, The Netherlands ABSTRACT The Danish Straits are the main connection between the Baltic Sea and the world oceans. The regime of passage through these straits has been the subject of extensiveregulation, raising the question how different applicable instruments interact. Apart from applicable bilateral and multilateral treaties, it is necessaryto take into account the practice of Denmark and Swedenand other interested states, and regulatory activities within the framework of the IMO. The Case ConcerningPassage Through the Great Belt before the ICJ provides insights into the views of Denmark and Finland. The article concludesthat an 1857treaty excludesthe applicabilityof Part III of the LOS Convention to the straits, and that there are a number of difficultiesin assessingthe contents of the regimeof the straits. At the same time, these uncertaintiesdo not seem to have been a complicatingfactor for the adoption of measuresto regulate shipping traffic. Introduction The Danish Straits are the main connection between the Baltic Sea and the world oceans. The straits are of vital importance for the maritime communication of the Baltic states and squarely fall within the legal category of straits used for international navigation For a number of these states the Baltic Sea is the only outlet to the oceans (Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland). Although * An earlier version of this article was presented at the international conference, The Passage of Ships Through Straits, sponsored by the Defense Analyses Institute, Athens, 23 October 1999.
