COMMISSION STAFF WORKING DOCUMENT

ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF NATIONAL RESIDUE MONITORING PLANS IN THE MEMBER STATES IN 2005 (Council Directive 96/23/EC)

The aim of this document is to summarise the actions taken in the Member States as a consequence of the non-compliant results found in food of animal origin through the implementation of Council Directive 96/23/EC on measures to monitor certain substances and residues thereof in live animals and animal products during 2005.

A summary report, including a compilation of the results obtained in the Member States in 2005, broken by food commodities (bovines, pigs, sheep and goats, horses, poultry, aquaculture, milk, eggs, rabbit meat, farmed game, wild game and honey) and groups of substances (hormones, corticosteroids, beta-agonists, prohibited substances, antibacterials, other veterinary medicinal products, “other” substances and contaminants) is attached to this document (“Report for 2005 on the results of residue monitoring in food of animal origin in the Member States”).

1. INTRODUCTION

Council Directive 96/23/EC1 on measures to monitor certain substances and residues thereof in live animals and animal products requires Member States to adopt and implement a national residue monitoring plan for specific groups of residues. Member States must assign the task of co-ordinating the implementation of the controls to a central public department or body. This department is responsible for drawing up the national plan, co-ordinating the activities of the central and regional departments responsible for monitoring the various residues, collecting the data and sending the results of the surveys undertaken to the Commission each year.

The Directive lays down specific sampling levels and frequencies, as well as the groups of substances to be monitored for each food commodity. Commission Decision 97/747/EC2 lays down additional rules for milk, eggs, honey, rabbits and game.

National monitoring plans should be targeted: samples should be taken with the aim of detecting illegal treatment or controlling compliance with the maximum residue limits (MRLs) for veterinary medicinal products set out in Annexes I and III of Council Regulation (EC) 2377/903, the maximum levels for pesticides set out in Annex II of Council Directive 86/363/EEC4 or the maximum levels laid down in relevant legislation on contaminants. This means that in the national plan the Member States target the groups of animals/gender/age combinations where the probability of finding residues is the highest. This approach is different from random sampling, where the objective is to gather statistically significant data, for instance to evaluate consumer exposure to a specific substance.

Member States must forward annually to the Commission the national monitoring plans, together with the results of their residue monitoring for the previous year, by 31 March at the latest. The Directive lays down a procedure by which the plans are approved on a yearly basis. This procedure involves the Member States.

As laid down in Article 8 of Directive 96/23/EC, the Commission has to report to the Member States, within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, the outcome of the checks carried out, in particular on the implementation of the national plans and on the development of the situation in the various regions of the Community. To this end, the Commission has summarised the results of the national residue monitoring plans for the year 2006. Trends within the European Union are also indicated by comparison with the 2004 report.

This summary of results of the national monitoring plans, , was presented to the Member States within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 20 November 2006 (Summary report 2005 SANCO/3635/2005- Annex I)

2. ACTIONS TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANT RESULTS

In accordance with Article 8 of Directive 96/23/EC, the Member States were requested, as a follow-up, to provide information on actions taken at regional and national level. The objective is to provide an overview of actions taken as a consequence of non-compliant5 results for residues of non-authorised substances or when the maximum residue limits (MRLs) established in EU legislation are exceeded.

In order to collect information on actions taken as a consequence of non- compliant results, the Commission sent a questionnaire to the Member States. These actions could be divided into the following three groups:

2.1 Sampling as suspect

2.2 Modifications of the national plans for 2006

2.3 Other actions

2.1. Sampling as suspect

Suspect samples are defined as:

1) samples taken as a consequence of non-compliant results on samples taken in accordance with the monitoring plan (Article 5 of Directive 96/23/EC);

2) samples taken as a consequence of possession or presence of prohibited substances at any point during manufacture, storage, distribution or sale throughout the food and feed production chain (Article 11 of Directive 96/23/EC);

3) samples taken where the veterinarian suspects or has evidence of illegal treatment or non-compliance with the withdrawal period for an authorised veterinary medicinal product (Article 24 of Directive 96/23/EC).

In summary, this means that the term “suspect sample” applies to a sample taken as a consequence of: – non-compliant results and/or

– suspicion of an illegal treatment at any stage of the food chain and/or

5 Non-compliant results correspond to the presence of a prohibited substance or to the presence of an authorised substance above the maximum level allowed in the legislation.

EN 4 EN

– suspicion of non-compliance with the withdrawal period for an authorised veterinary medicinal product.

2.2. Modifications of the national plan for 2006

The national residue monitoring plan aims at detecting illegal treatment of food- producing animals, controlling compliance with the maximum residue limits for veterinary medicinal products, the maximum residue levels for pesticides and the maximum levels for contaminants. Non-compliant results for a specific substance/group of substances or a specific food commodity should result in intensified controls for this substance/group or food commodity in the plan for the following year.

2.3. Other actions taken as a consequence of non-compliant results

Article 16 and Articles 22-28 of Directive 96/23/EC prescribe a series of actions (other than modifications of the residue monitoring plan) to be taken in the case of non-compliant results or infringements: 1. To carry out investigations in the farm of origin, such us verification of records and additional sampling.

2. To hold animals in the farm as a consequence of positive findings.

3. To slaughter animals in case of confirmation of illegal treatment and to send them to a high risk processing plant.

4. To intensify the controls in the farms where non-compliant results were found.

5. To impound carcasses at the slaughterhouse when non-compliant results have been found.

6. To declare the carcasses or products of animal origin unfit for human consumption.

The changes introduced by some Member States for the 2006 plan together with the responses of the Member States in relation to this type of actions are summarised in Annex II to this document.

1. LEGAL BASIS

The aim of this report is to summarise the results of the national residue monitoring plans during the year 2005 in the Member States. This report includes for the second time the data obtained in the 10 new Member States after accession on 1 May 2004.

Council Directive 96/23/EC on measures to monitor certain substances and residues thereof in live animals and animal products states that Member States should draft a national residue monitoring plan for the groups of residues detailed in its Annex I6 in accordance with the sampling rules and levels referred to in Annex IV of the Directive. The Directive lays down sampling levels and frequency, as well as the groups of substances to be monitored for each food commodity. Decision 97/747/EC7 lays down additional rules for certain animal products: milk, eggs, honey, rabbits and game.

National plans should be targeted to take the following minimum criteria into account: sex, age, species, fattening system, all available background information and all evidence of misuse or abuse of substances. Member States should forward to the Commission the results of their residue monitoring by 31 March of each year at the latest.

Additionally, suspect samples may also be taken as part of residue control. Suspect sample applies to a sample taken as a consequence of:

– non-compliant results

– suspicion of illegal treatment

– suspicion of non-compliance with the withdrawal period for an authorised veterinary medicinal product

What does “non-compliant result” mean?

Commission Decision 2002/657/EC8 concerning the performance of analytical methods and the interpretation of the results lays down rules for the analytical methods to be used in the testing of official samples and specifies common criteria for the interpretation of analytical results.

Since the entry into force of Decision 2002/657/EC (1 September 2002), the correct term for those analytical results exceeding the permitted limits (in previous reports termed “positives”) is “non-compliant”. A non-compliant result means that the result has a sufficient statistical certainty and can be used for legal purposes9.

6 Annex I to Directive 96/23/EC lists the groups of substances to be covered by residue monitoring. It is presented in Annex 1 to this report for ease of reference. 7 OJ L 303, 6.11.1997, p. 12-15 8 OJ L 221, 17.8.2002, p. 8-36 9 As laid down in Article 6 of Decision 2002/657/EC, the result of an analysis shall be considered non-compliant if the decision limit of the confirmatory method for the analyte is exceeded. Decision limit is defined in Article 6(3) as the lowest concentration at which the method can confirm with a defined statistical certainty (99 % for substances for which no permitted limit has been established, and 95 % for all other substances) that the particular analyte is present.

EN 8 EN

Legal basis for permitted limits

For veterinary medicinal products, maximum residue limits (MRLs) are laid down in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/9010.

For pesticides, MRLs are laid down in Directive 86/363/EC11.

Maximum levels for lead, cadmium and mercury are laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 466/200112 and its amendments. For contaminants where no EU maximum levels had been fixed at the time of the collection of these samples, national tolerance levels were applied.

Minimum Required Performance Limits (MRPLs)

Annex to Commission Decision 2002/657/EC: means minimum content of an analyte in a sample, which at least has to be detected and confirmed. It is intended to harmonise the analytical performance of methods for substances for which no permitted limit has been established.

MRPLs for chloramphenicol, nitrofurans metabolites, medroxyprogesterone acetate13 and malachite and leucho malachite green14 have been established so far.

3. MAIN FINDINGS IN 2005

This report includes for the second time the data obtained in the 10 new Member States after accession on 1 May 2004.

Altogether, around 707 163 targeted samples (456 163 samples for all groups+ 251 000 for inhibitor tests) and 73 000 suspect samples (70 505 samples for all groups + 2 350 for inhibitor tests) were taken in all Member States in 2005, i.e. 780 163 samples for residue control in all food commodities. 871 000 samples were taken in 2004.

For hormones (steroids and zeranol derivatives), 0.13 % of the samples taken in bovines were found to be non-compliant (0.12 % in 2004) and 0.44% in pigs (mainly due to the presence of nandrolone and contamination with the metabolite zearalenone), compared to 0.3% in 2004.

In 2005, 8 non-compliant were reported for thyrostatic agents in bovines. This is the first time since 2000 that non-compliant results for thyrostats have been detected in the EU. The finding was enabled by improving the performance of the analytical methods used for the analysis lowering the limit of detection form 50 to 1 ppb. However these results should be treated with caution as recent research have shown a possible background of natural occurrence of thyrostats in animals fed with cruciferous amounting up to 10 ppb.

The number of non-compliant results for corticosteroids in bovines increased from 42 targeted and 22 suspect in 2004 to 60 targeted and 126 suspect; dexamethasone was the most frequently found substance for corticosteroids.

For Beta-agonists, the incidence of non-compliant results increased from 0.06 % in 2004 to 0.08%. However in 2005 only 2 Member States have reported non-compliant results for beta- agonists compared to Six Member States in 2004.

For prohibited substances, the percentage of non-compliant results decreased from 0.11% in 2004 to 0.07% in 2005 in bovines. In pigs the percentage of non-compliant results for A6 was 0.05% (same as in 2004). Some non-compliant results were still found for chloramphenicol in different food commodities: bovines: 8 targeted and 6 suspect; pigs: 4 targeted and 2 suspect, poultry: 11 targeted and 39 suspect, aquaculture: 3 targeted and 8 suspect, milk: 2 targeted, rabbit: 3 targeted; for Nitrofurans, bovines: 1 targeted, 3 suspect, pigs: 5 targeted, sheep: 3 targeted, poultry: 6 targeted and 8 suspect, aquaculture: 1 targeted, eggs¨2 targeted, farmed game: 2 targeted and for nitroimidazoles: pigs: 1 targeted and 5 suspect; poultry: 2 targeted, 1 suspect; aquaculture: 1 targeted, 31 suspect;

The percentage of non-compliant results for antibacterials has decreased from 0.22 % to 0.20 % in 2005. Most of non-compliant results were found in pigs. In terms of number of non-compliant results antibacterials remains the main problem for meat (bovines, pigs, sheep, goats, poultry, and rabbits) and for milk, eggs and honey.

For veterinary medicinal products, in bovines most of the non-compliant results were for anti- inflammatory drugs such as dexamethasone, which has a MRL for meat, liver and milk but can also be used illegally as a growth-promoting agent. Additional investigations should be carried out when detecting residues in order to rule out that its presence is due to the illegal use as an anabolic substance. There were also some non-compliant results for non-steroid anti- inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs: phenylbutazone, flunixin meglumine and tolfenamic acid in bovines and sheep, diclofenac, metamizol and ramifenazon in pigs). However no residues for sedatives have been reported in pigs as in 2004.

EN 11 EN

Non-compliant results for anticoccidials were reported in bovines, pigs, poultry, eggs and rabbit meat; the most commonly found substances are nicarbazin, lasalocid, and diclazuril.

Antihelmintic residues were found in cattle, sheep and goats and aquaculture; the most commonly found substance was levamisole and avermectines.

Residues of malachite green in aquaculture products were found in eleven Member States. The number of non-compliant results continues to decrease from 58 targeted and 190 suspect in 2004 to 45 targeted and 49 suspect in 2005.

In milk, apart from antibiotics, most of the non-compliant results were for aflatoxin M1 and for organochlorine compounds (PCBs) and in eggs for anticoccidials, which are not authorised as feed additives for laying hens older than 16 weeks, but residues are often found in eggs, possibly due to cross-contamination of the feed in the feed mill.

There are no authorised antibacterial substances for treatment of bees in the EU; several non- compliant results for antibacterials were reported in honey as well as for heavy metals.

The results for the controls carried out on environmental contaminants are also included in this report:

Non-compliant results for heavy metals (cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury and arsenic) were reported for bovines, pigs, sheep and goats, horses, aquaculture, milk, rabbit meat, farmed game, wild game and honey.

Also residues of organochlorine compounds such as e.g. PCBs, HCH, PCDD, PCDF were reported in bovines, sheep and goats, aquaculture, milk, eggs, farmed game and wild game.

OVERALL CONCLUSION

Overall the picture shows a decrease of 10% in the number of samples taken for residue control together with a decrease in the global number of non-compliant results.

There is a continuing problem with residues of antimicrobial agents throughout the commodities tested. This highlights the importance of Member States utilising broad spectrum antimicrobial screening tests and taking appropriate corrective and preventive measures to decrease the prevalence of such residues. It is also important to further consider the differences in the strategies applied by the Member States for the screening of antimicrobials.

The issue of malachite green warrants highlighting even though the prevalence rate of residues detected in 2005 decreased relative to 2004. Again Member States are reminded to redouble their efforts to eliminate the use of this non-authorised substance in aquaculture.

Finally, residues of coccidiostats continue to represent a problem especially in eggs. The influence of cross contamination of animal feedingstuffs cannot be stressed enough both within feedmills and on farms. Efforts are required to minimised the possibility of such contamination occurring.

4.1. PRODUCTION AND PERCENTAGE OF TARGETED SAMPLES: BOVINES, PIGS, SHEEP AND GOATS, HORSES

Directive 96/23/EC establishes the minimum number of samples that have to be analysed for each food commodity in relation to the production figures for the previous year. As an example, the number of bovine samples that have to be analysed in 2006 is 0.4% of the number of bovine animals slaughtered in 2005.

The number of animals slaughtered broken down by category is shown in Table 1. In all cases, the minimum number of samples is respected for the EU overall.

4.2. PRODUCTION AND PERCENTAGE OF TARGETED SAMPLES FOR POULTRY

According to Directive 96/23/EC, the minimum number of samples for each category of poultry must be one per 200 t of annual production, with a minimum of 100 samples for each group of substances where annual production in the category concerned is over 5 000 t. The graph below shows poultry production in ‘000 t in the Member States arranged by level of production and the number of targeted samples per 200 t of annual production. GR did not achieve the minimum number of samples.

4.3. NON-COMPLIANT RESULTS

4.3.1. HORMONES

Hormones include group A1 (stilbenes), A3 (steroids) and A4 (resorcylic acid lactones). There were no non-compliant results for group A1 (stilbenes and derivatives).

In 2005 FR reported 8 NC results for A2 (thyrostatic agents) out of 657 targeted samples. Since 2000 there were no NC results for thyrostats in the EU.

In terms of absolute results, 59 287 targeted samples were taking in 2005 for A1, A2, A3 and A4 and 8 non-compliant results were found for A2, 68 for A3 and 7 for A4 in bovine which means 0.13 % of non-compliant results for hormones in the EU, compared to 0.12 % in 2004.

In pigs, 71 targeted samples out of 11 229 were non-compliant for A3 and 48 for A4 out of 6 558 targeted samples and 0 out of 2 783 targeted samples for A2, (total 27 043 targeted samples) which means 0.44 % of non-compliant results for hormones in pigs in the EU (0.3 % in 2004).

Specific substances and figures are given in Tables 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 for both targeted and suspect sampling.

4.3.2. CORTICOSTEROIDS

With regard to corticosteroids, some Member States include these in group A3 because they are steroids, whereas others allocate them to B2f (other pharmacologically active substances). Both approaches may be acceptable; dexamethasone is known to be used in cocktails with other growth promoters. The Member States that include them in group A argue that they then have more legal powers to respond.

In 2005 an increase can be observed in the number of non-compliant results for corticosteroids compared to 2004 (60 targeted and 126 suspect non-compliant results in 2005 compared to 42 targeted and 28 suspect in 2004). It is interesting that the same MS that found NC results for corticosteroids in 2004 have also found them in 2005, except FR that had no NC in 2004 and has 1 in 2005.

Information on substances found and whether they are considered as A3 or B2f is given in Table 9.

4.3.3. BETA-AGONISTS

The percentage of non-compliant results for Beta-agonists is calculated by comparing the total number of samples in bovines tested for Beta-agonists with the non-compliant results found.

There was an increase in the percentage of non-compliant results for Beta-agonists in bovines from 0.06 % in 2004 to 0.08 % in 2005. In terms of absolute results, 17 targeted and 28 suspect non-compliant results were found in 2004 and 28 targeted and 4 suspects in bovines in 2005; in pigs 11 targeted non-compliant results in 2004 and 8 targeted in 2005. In addition, 4 targeted non-compliant results were found for sheep in P in 2004 and 3 in 2005. All NC results were for clenbuterol.

4.3.4. PROHIBITED SUBSTANCES (A6)

Group A6 lists compounds included in Annex IV to Council Regulation No 2377/90/EEC (prohibited substances), which are prohibited substances other than the ones covered by Directive 96/22/EC.

For bovines, the percentage of non-compliant targeted results in the EU decreased from 0.11 % in 2004 to 0.07% in 2005. AT, CZ, DE, FR and LV found non-compliant results for chloramphenicol in targeted sampling. Nitrofuran non-compliant results were found in IE 10 non-compliant results were found after suspect sampling in bovines (4 chloramphenicol and 4 nitrofurans) (see Table 13 for details).

For pigs, the percentage of non-compliant for targeted samples was 0.05 % same as in 2004. In absolute terms the number of non-compliant samples for A6 in pigs increased from 8 targeted in 2004 to 10 in 2005. Additionally 2 non-complaint results were found after suspect sampling for chloramphenicol and 5 for metronidazol.

For poultry, in 2005, 19 samples were found non-compliant for A6 for targeted samples and 48 suspect sample for A6 (see Table 13 for details).

1 non-compliant result was found in horses for nitrofurans targeted samples and 1 for suspect samples. For sheep and goats 8 non-compliant results for target samples and 9 for suspect samples, 3 of them for nitrofurans metabolites and 5 for chloramphenicol (see Table 13 for details).

4.3.5. ANTIBACTERIALS

Antibacterials include all substances in group B1: sulfonamides, penicillins, quinolones, tetracyclines, etc. It should be pointed out that there are different ways of interpreting the results of the analysis for antimicrobials, depending on the analytical method used: Screening tests allow a high sample throughput and a high number of samples to be analysed in a relatively short time and they are designed to minimise the number of false negatives. When residues are found in a screening test, a confirmatory test shall be carried out, which normally involves a more sophisticated testing method, providing full or complementary information enabling the substance to be identified precisely and confirming that the MRL has been exceeding. These tests are intended to keep the number of false non-compliant results as low as possible.

In the case of antibacterials, some of the screening tests are based on microbiological tests, whereby the sample is cultivated in different bacterial media. If, after the incubation period, the sample has inhibited the growth of the bacteria, it is considered that an antibacterial is present, but the specific substance is not identified. Given that this is a qualitative analytical method, a misinterpretation of the results cannot be ruled out, and some false positives can occur. Physico-chemical analysis provides information on the specific substance present in the sample.

In some Member States and under specific control programmes (autocontrols), a positive result in a microbiological test is sufficient to reject the sample. This may mean that no confirmation by a physico-chemical method is carried out and there is thus no conclusive identification of the substance concerned. In other cases, a positive result in the screening test is confirmed by means of a physico-chemical test, and it is then possible to identify the substance and establish whether its concentration is above the MRL. Another possibility is to analyse directly with a physico-chemical test (i.e. sulfonamides analysis).

In Germany, for instance, there are two different strategies. One is to fulfil the requirements of Directive 96/23/EC and for which all results obtained by inhibitor tests are confirmed by physico-chemical methods to check compliance with MRLs. For the second strategy, all analyses are carried out by inhibitor tests (e.g. n-plate test) and food for which positive results are obtained is considered unfit for human consumption according to national law. 18 444 samples for bovines, 229 680 for pigs, 3 603 for sheep, 49 for horses, 47 for poultry, 37 for aquaculture, 79 for rabbits and 1 for game were analysed under this scheme, giving rise to 57 positive inhibitor tests for bovines, 223 for pigs and 9 for sheep.

With regard to suspect samples, NL had the highest absolute number of non-compliant results (480 out of 13 672 for bovines, and 517 out of 21 462 for pigs). In NL, in the event of positive results for inhibitor tests, investigations in the farm of origin are carried out to check whether the withdrawal period has been respected; also, carcasses are detained for 24 hours until the result is available. If it is positive for the inhibitor test, the sample is considered non-compliant, without the need for physico-chemical methods. This strategy explains the higher number of samples taken by the Netherlands compared to other Member States.

In Belgium, during meat inspections in the slaughterhouses, carcasses considered suspect by the veterinary inspector are subject to an inhibitor test. If the results are non-

EN 22 EN

compliant, the carcasses are considered unfit for human consumption. Belgium reported that 4 458 bovines, 658 pigs and 38 horses were subject to controls under this scheme giving rise to 58, 27 and 15 non-compliant results respectively.

In the EU as a whole, non-compliant results for antibacterials (bovines, pigs, sheep, goats, horses and poultry) decreased from 0.22% in 2003 and in 2004 to 0.20 % in 2005. The number of targeted samples in 2005 was 143 309 targeted samples + 251 823 inhibitor test in Germany, total 395 132 targeted samples compared to 422 621 targeted samples for bovines, pig, sheep and goats, horses and poultry in 2004.

The number of targeted non-compliant results decreased from 1 019 in 2004 to 786 in 2005.

59% of non-compliant targeted samples were found in pigs, 28% in bovines, 8% in sheep and goats, 4% in poultry and 1 % in horses. In the table below, the number of non-compliant results for antibacterials in bovines, pigs, sheep, goats, horses and poultry is listed, including the results obtained from suspect samples.

Group B substances

Modification of national residue Aggregate for all animal products and plan substances Information with regard to the Benzimidazoles (B 2a): The Community recommendations of the Reference Laboratory Berlin provided a European Commission (2005) Multi-residue method for benzimidazoles in muscle by LC-MSMS. The laboratory is implementing this method; this group of substances will be included into the plan by beginning 2007, at the latest.

Aquaculture: Mercury has been included. Milk: Corticosteroids (B 2f) are part of the plan 2006. Eggs: Tetracyclines (B 1) have been included into the plan. Honey: Tylosin is tested for additionally.

Due to technical problems Chlordimeform is not included into the plan (recovery rate is too high). Amitraz is not part of the plan 2006, but in 2007, it is planned to start analysing honey for Amitraz. General information New: Eggs are analysed for nicarbazin. New: In B 2e the following substances are added to the analytic spectrum: Diclofenac, Mefenamin-Acid and Tolfenaminsacid. New: For testing for chemical elements a new method is used: ICP-MS New: Cadmium, Lead and Mercury are tested for in all animal tissues as a package (multi residue method), therefore all additional samples for Mercury are cancelled. Due to compliant results over a B 1 and B 3a in horses two or moreyear period, the B 1 in poultry (broiler) number of samples will be decreased

QUESTIONNAIRE ON THE ACTIONS TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANT RESULTS IN 2005

Member State BELGIUM

Date 12 July 2006

Group A substances

Modification of national residue Aggregate for all animal products and substances plan - The national production has been calculated on the basis of the sum of the last 3 years + normal deviation. Number of samples has been modified proportionally to the production amounts which were sometimes lower than the ones used for the 2005 plan; - The number of samples has been lowered by about 5 % for substance/species for which no non compliant results have been observed from 2000-2004 period; - The number of samples for thyreostats analysis was lowered to the minimal number fixed by the Council directive 96/23/EC; - Until now, several species were sampled for farmed game but often number of samples was very low (1 or 2). From this year we have chosen to target each year on one species in the aim to increase the statistical value of the results. In 2006 we target on pigeons as a result of the 2004 FVO inspection report. In 2006 about 167 samples will be taken in pigeons instead of 86 in 2005; - For nitroimidazoles analysis, plasma samples have been added : in pig, 25 plasma and 74 muscle samples; in chicken, 40 plasma and 40 muscle samples; in hens, 5 plasma and 10 muscle samples; in ducks, 5 plasma and 10 muscle samples; in guinea fowl, 5 plasma and 10 muscle samples; in turkeys, 10 plasma and 10 muscle samples; - A new approach using a risk assessment has been used to determine the number of samples for all substance groups in milk and eggs. A score is allocated to the nature of the hazard (0-4), the non compliance history/the risk of contamination (0-3) and the contribution to the diet of the product. The total score set a prevalence to check and a confidence level to respect and the number of samples to take is determine using a statistics software. Consequently, number of samples decreased for some substance groups; - Total milk samples for dapson analysis is decreased to 65; - Total milk samples for nitrofurans metabolites and nitroimidazoles analysis is increased to 156; - Samples of sheep, goat and mare milk are nom analysed for all substances groups; - In eggs, samples for nitroimidazoles analysis are decreased to 40.

Administrative measures H status : for 52 weeks animals from the farm may only be sent to slaughterhouse in Belgium where 10 % of them are analysed at the expense of the farmer. In case of new infringement during this period, another period of 104 weeks is added to the first one. H status was allocated to 1 pig farm due to furaltadone non compliant result in feed. CRIMINAL PENALTIES In all cases of infringements relating to group A substances (except A6), a Pro Justicia is sent to prosecutor who decides whether prosecution or not (Law 15 July 1985 Hormones1 e.a.). In 2005, there were verdicts and judgements imposing or confirming criminal penalties to 6 individuals relating to the Law 15 July 1985 Hormones and for some to the Law 24 February 1921 Traffic of substances2 One individual was convinced to effective jail sentence and an effective fine. Two were convinced to suspended jail sentences, effective fines and seizure of money. One was also convicted to closing of exploitation, to ban to market animals and to run a farm for 1 year. Three individuals were convinced to effective fines and also to suspended fines. Two were convinced to the publication of the sentences in papers. 1 Loi du 15 Juillet 1985 relative à l’utilisation de substances à effet hormonal, à effet anti- hormonal, à effet beta-adrénergique ou à effet stimulateur de production chez les animaux.

Group B substances

Modification of national residue Aggregate for all animal products and substances plan - The national production has been calculated on the basis of the sum of the last 3 years + normal deviation. Number of samples has been modified proportionally to the production amounts which were sometimes lower than the ones used for the 2005 plan; - The number of samples has been lowered by about 5 % for substance/species combination for which no non compliant results have been observed from 2000- 2004 period; - A new approach using a risk assessment has been used to determine the number of samples for B3 group in animals/animal matrices. A score is allocated to the nature of the hazard (0-4), the non compliance history/the risk of contamination (0-3) and the contribution to the diet of the meat. The total score set a prevalence to check and a confidence level to respect and the number of samples to take is determine using a statistics software. The number of samples is then allocated between the different species/animal categories using several criteria (non compliance history, probability of environmental contamination, probability of use, age of animals at slaughtering, etc). Generally more samples will be taken for dioxins and dioxin like PCB and less for marker PCB, pesticides and chemical elements; - Until now, several species were sampled for farmed game but often number of samples was very low (1 or 2). From this year we have chosen to target each year on one species in the aim to increase the statistical value of the results. In 2006, we target on pigeons as a result of the 2004 FVO inspection report. In 2006 about 167 samples will be taken in pigeons instead of 86 in 2005; - In bovine, 25 samples for benzimidazols analysis have been added; - In horses, 10 samples for corticosteroid analysis have been added; - The same risk assessment approach that for B3 substances in animal matrices has been applied for all substance groups in eggs and milk. Consequently, number of samples decreased for some substance groups; - In milk mercury and arsenic are now analysed; - Total milk samples for B1 analysis is decreased to 118; - In cow milk samples analysed for benzimidazoles and avermectines are decreased to 34; samples for NSAID are decreased to 12; samples for dioxins analysis are increased to 110, for dioxin like PCB and for marker PCB to 58. Samples analysed for OC pesticides are decreased to 30. Thirty samples are analysed for mercury and arsenic. Samples analysed for aflatoxin are decreased to 98. Samples of sheep, goat and mare milk are now analysed for all substances groups; - Milk of sheep : 10 samples for avermectins and benzimidazoles, 2 samples for NSAID; 10 samples are analysed for dioxins, dioxin like PCB and marker PCB; 10 samples are analysed for OC and OP pesticides; 15 samples are analysed for lead; 10 samples are analysed for cadmium, arsenic and mercury; - Milk of goat : 10 samples for avermectins and benzimidazoles, 6 samples for NSAID, 26 samples analysed for dioxins, 18 samples analysed for dioxin like

Non-compliant results Follow-up actions Bovines In 2005, the Public Prosecutor Service opened an investigation concerning the use of feed supplement containing dexamethason. An investigation was made to identify the origin, the middlemen and the farms concerned. 68 farms were investigated, samples of animal matrices, feed and sometimes materials were taken. 13 of these farms were investigated due to 18 dexamethason non compliant results at slaughterhouse. Fattening animals were put under temporary seizure. Farms were put under surveillance. Suspect samples. These results have led to methason-animal matrix-slaughterhous investigation at farms (see above). Suspect samples. Concerned 33 farms. In 14 of methason-animal matrix-farm these farms, dexamethason was found in animal and feed samples. In 1 farm, dexamethason was methason-feed only found in feed. A total of 51 animals were slaughtered and destroyed. H status was allocated to the concerned farms. These cases are still under prosecution proceeding.

Modification of national residue plan Aggregate for all animal products and substances Tous les élevages et établissements ayant eu des résultats non conformes au cours des plans de contrôle 2005 seront ciblés prioritairement pour les plans 2006. Des courriers rappelant la bonne tenue obligatoire du registre d’élevage ont été transmis aux éleveurs concernés. Dans la plupart des cas, des mesures correctives ont été mises en place pour pallier aux erreurs de gestion du registre d’élevage (conservation des ordonnances). Il a été rappelé aux éleveurs : - Le respect des posologies et des durées de traitement. - La nécessité du respect du temps d’attente après administration de médicaments vétérinaires et avant abattage. - D’assurer la gestion des stocks de médicaments vétérinaires par une surveillance accrue et une élimination régulière des médicaments périmés.

Une DDSV a effectué un contrôle renforcé sur un prélèvement d’œufs de caille suite à une non-conformité mise en évidence dans le plan 2004. Le résultat est conforme. L’enquête a conclu à la bonne tenue du registre d’élevage et a permis de retrouver les ordonnances, les traitements administrés et les

délais. La non-conformité est sans doute due à une erreur de manipulation dans l’abreuvement des animaux, ou le traitement a été prolongé en absence d’indication sur le registre d’élevage. Dans tous les cas, le médicament à base de sulfamides ne devait pas être prescrit par le vétérinaire aux cailles dont les oeufs sont destinés à la consommation humaine.

Les DDSV ont réalisé des enquêtes dans les

élevages concernés. La présence d’anticoccidiens dans les prélèvements n’a pas pu être expliquée. Les hypothèses formulées sont les suivantes : - contamination au cours de la fabrication Anticoccidiens : robénidine, des aliments médicamenteux à l’usine lasalocide, nicarbazine, diclazuril et (mauvais nettoyage entre 2 fabrications maduramycine – 19 œufs de poules et d’aliments médicamenteux destinés à 5 œufs de cailles des espèces différentes). - Les résultats sont de faux positifs (il s’agit d’un plan expérimental géré par le LNR).

QUESTIONNAIRE ON THE ACTIONS TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANT RESULTS IN 2005

Member State GERMANY Date 29 June 2006

Modification of national residue plan – general

Screening methods

In the course of standardising transmission of residue control plan data to the Commission, it has been agreed that Member States should also report their screening methods on-line from 2005 on. Accordingly, screening methods have been included in the plan.

Matrices

The Commission found that the plan contains too many substance-matrix combinations. It was agreed to list only those matrices which were in fact to be examined. Therefore, irrelevant matrices have been eliminated from the 2006 plan.

Group A substances

Modification of national residue plan Aggregate for all animal products and substances Group A3

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses 17-alpha-Trenbolon was included as a new substance. Rabbits The following substances were included in the plan: methyltestosterone, 17 alphatrenbolon, 17 beta-trenbolon, stanozolol, 17 alpha-nortestosterone und 17 betanortestosterone.

Group A4

EN 136 EN

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses Liver was added to the matrices listed in the national residue control plan because there are plans for an MRPL of 2 μg/kg of zeranol and zearalenone in liver.

Group A5

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses Sample numbers have been reduced to 15% of the total sample number in group A, both in the producer’s establishment and in the slaughterhouse, because there have not been any findings of beta-agonists since 2002, except for one unclear finding of mabuterol in turkeys in 2003. The capacities released by this step have been added “Group A1-A6, free choice”.

Poultry Given the fact that the poultry’s drinking water is as well suited to control administration of ß-agonists as actual birds, sample numbers prescribed for birds and drinking water/birds in 2005 have been swapped, so that more samples can be drawn from drinking water instead in 2006. In order to check administration of ß-agonists by feed, the plan provides for feed samples to be drawn in addition to drinking water samples.

Group A6

Poultry Analysis of the metabolite DSH has been included in the plan.

Milk The CRL in Fougéres recommended to test milk for nitrofuranes. Yet, discussion with experts of Germany’s federal states brought out that nitrofuranes do not play a role dairy farming. The states therefore did not deem it necessary to perform such analyses.

Eggs The CRL in Fougéres recommended to test eggs for chloramphenicol. Therefore, 25% of the tests provided for in group A6 are targeted on chloramphenicol. The CRL in Berlin recommended to test eggs for metronidazol. As this substance is analysed together with nitro-imidazols by the same method, metronidazol has been included as an additional obligatory substance in the 2006 plan. Honey Because of a number of rapid alert notices, the Commission recommended to test honey

EN 137 EN

for nitrofurane metabolites. Therefore, 17 samples will be tested for group-A6 substances (chloramphenicol and nitrofurane metabolites). Non-compliant results Follow-up actions Chloramphenicol -2,1 Investigations at the farm of origin; follow-up μg/kgdrinking water – turkey samples of animal drinking water positive; followup samples of animals negative; drinking water pipes exchanged Chloramphenicol -0,41 No information μg/kgmuscle fattening pig Chloramphenicol -0,93 On-site controls; follow-up samples (slaughter μg/kgmuscle fattening cow animals and drinking water) with negative result; check of veterinary dispensary, notice of slaughter, case handed over to public prosecutor Chloramphenicol -0,39 Analysis of 10 follow-up samples from the μg/kgplasma cattle original stock (cattle plasma), all follow-up samples were free of CAP, the cause of the positive finding could not be established. Chloramphenicol -2,5 μg/kgmuscle On-site investigations in the slaughterhouse, chicken closure of stock of origin, analysis of follow-up samples from the stock of origin, analysis of feed and drinking water, release after all follow-up samples turned out to be free of CAP. Cause could not be finally clarified. Chloramphenicol -2 μg/kg- muscle On-site inspection of flock by responsible duck authority, taking of suspicious and follow-up samples to establish cause, inspection of farm dispensary. Preliminarily seized product was released by responsible authority after negative result of follow-up samples. All follow-up samples below limit of detection. AOZ- 3 μg/kg- muscle eel Investigations at the farm of origin: follow-up samples of animals and feed negative. Investigations in the supplier farm: follow-up samples of animals negative; intensified checks of stocks for 12 months; criminal proceedings. Hydroxymetronidazol/metronidazol On-site inspection; taking of 3 suspicious samples 0,23 / 0,058 μg/l plasma fattening in which residues of hydroxymetronidazol / pig metronidazol were found (between 0.33 and 5.55 μg/l). Farm closed until 25 follow-up plasma samples are analysed with negative result. Analysis of 4 feed samples (2 positive), inspection of veterinary dispensary, intensified checks of livestock; case handed to public prosecutor

EN 138 EN

Testosterone -5,4 μg/kg- Investigations at farm of origin; follow-up plasmaheifer samplesnegative; inspection of the farm’s veterinary dispensary, no signs of illegal treatment; intensified checks of livestock. Nandrolone -82,4 μg/kg- urine-bore Investigations in the farm of origin; follow-up samples negative; no signs of illegal treatment; intensified checks of livestock

* Information to be included for each non-compliant result. In case of several non-compliant results for the same substance in the same holding or related holdings, data could be aggregated. Data on concentration and matrix is very useful to be used as background information for the monitoring of the prevalence of use of group A substances.

EN 139 EN

Group B substances

Modification of national residue plan Aggregate for all animal products and substances

Group B1

Milk With regard to sulfonamides, the standard range of substances is taken over as target.

Farmed game In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, and comply with the Commission’s requirements for transmission of data, sample numbers provided for group B1 have been distributed over the following sub-groups: sulfonamides, tetracyclines, and chinolones. Analyses are made for the standard range of substances.

Group B2a

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses Numbers of samples for avermectins have been halved, except for with horses, as there have been no positive findings for these substances. Freed sample capacities have been distributed over the B2d and B2e groups, because there, positive findings must be expected rather than with avermectins. The benzimidazoles albendazole, albendazole sulfoxide, fenbendazole, flubendazole, oxfendazole, oxibendazole, thiabendazole, triclabendazole and mebendazole have been included in the plan as obligatory substances. „Other anti-helminthics“ (levamisole to niclosamide): these substances have been deleted from the plan for capacity reasons and lack of importance. From group B2a, 416 samples will again be tested for benzimidazoles in 2006, while 999 samples will be tested for substances of the B2b and B2c groups.

Poultry Analysis of levamisole and flubendazole has been included in the plan.

Rabbits In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, the following substances have been fixed: ivermectin, abamectin, doramectin, eprinomectin, and moxidectin.

Group B2b

EN 140 EN

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses Use of the feed additives monesin-Na (for cattle) and salinomycin-Na (for piglets and fattening pigs) has been banned without transition since 01 January 2006. Apart from for these two substances, tests are also made for lasalocid, because of the problem of unintentional transfer to successive production lots of feed. Some 470 samples will therefore be tested for the substances mentioned. To survey compliance with that ban, it is recommended to draw most of the samples in the first half of 2006.

Rabbits In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, and comply with the Commission’s requirements for transmission of data, the following substances have been fixed: monesin, nicarbacin, salinomycin, and metylchlopidol.

Farmed game In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, and comply with the Commission’s requirements for transmission of data, the following substances have been fixed: monesin, nicarbacin, and salinomycin.

Group B2c

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses To comply with annex II of Directive 96/23/EC, the number of 172 samples was fixed to be analysed in group B2c.

Poultry Tests for cypermethrin, alpha-cypermethrin, deltamethrin, and permethrin have been added.

Rabbits In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, and comply with the Commission’s requirements for transmission of data, the following substances have been fixed: diallat, bifenthrin, cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, esfenvalerate, fenvalerate, fluvalinate and permethrin.

Farmed game In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, and comply with the Commission’s requirements for transmission of data, the following substances have been fixed: cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, and permethrin.

Group B2e

EN 141 EN

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses Tests for phenylbutazon repeatedly produced positive findings, in majority with cattle, in contrast to tests for the other NSAIDs on the plan. Sample numbers of phenylbutazon tests have therefore been raised by 40%, while the numbers for the other NSAIDs have been reduced correspondingly. For horses, sample numbers for phenylbutazon tests have been doubled. Sample numbers for other NSAIDs have been distributed as follows: - 50 % of samples will be analysed for carprofen, vedaprofen, tolfenamin acid, flunixin, meloxicam and diclofenac, and - 50 % of samples will be analysed for metamizol, aminopyrin and ramifenazon.

Poultry Tests for carprofen, vedaprofen, tolfenamin acid, flunixin, meloxicam and diclofenac have been included in the plan.

Farmed game In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, and comply with the Commission’s requirements for transmission of data, the following substances have been fixed: phenylbutazon, carprofen, vedaprofen and tolfenamin acid.

Group B2f

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses Dexamethasone, betamethasone, prednisolone and methylprednisolone have been added to the 2006 Plan, because they are analysed by one and the same method.

Rabbits In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, and comply with the Commission’s requirements for transmission of data, the following substances have been fixed: phenylbutazon, carprofen, vedaprofen, tolfenamin acid, flunixin, meglumin, diclofenac, ketoprofen, mefenamin acid, nifluminin acid, oxyphenbutazon anhydrat, suxibuzon.

Group B3a

All animal species and products Simazine and methoxychlor have been deleted from the test scheme because there have been no findings – as far as BVL knows – above the maximum residue limits during the sampling period 2003to 2005, and because these substances hardly any longer play a role as environmental contaminants. They had been included in the plan in 2002 in the wake of a nitrofen scandal.

Eggs

EN 142 EN

The Commission has issued Regulation No. (EC) 684/2004 revising maximum limits for dioxins in food. Under these regulations, the maximum permissible dioxin level of 3pg WHO-PCDD/F- TEQ/g fat in hens’ eggs and egg products stemming from extensive farming was suspended until 31 December 2004. The availability of data being still unsatisfactory, and dioxin testing of eggs being part of a large- scale dioxin monitoring anyhow, it is planned that 111 samples will be analysed for dioxins and dioxin-like PCBs in 2006.

Group B3b

Cattle, swine, sheep/goat and horses In order to put Annex II of Directive 96/23/EC into practice, the following substances have been included as obligatory substances: phoxim, propetamphos, and diazinone.

Group B3c

Eggs Sixty-five samples will be analysed for the following elements in line with the provisions of the National Food Monitoring scheme: arsenic, lead, cadmium, copper, mercury, selenium, and zinc. The data are needed for comparison with the National Food Monitoring.

Group B3d

Poultry / Aquacultures Aflatoxin M1 has been deleted as irrelevant. It is formed only in the rumen of ruminants.

Aquacultures To act in conformity with Directive 96/23/EG, Annex II, aflatoxin B1and ochratoxin A were fixed as obligatory substances in group B3d.

Group B3e

Aquacultures The high numbers of samples prescribed for 2005 are maintained in 2006 because of the positive findings of malachite green in 2004 and 2005.

So, taking into account the volume of production in 2005 and 2004 (fish, honey) and the fact that there were positive results in several groups of substances, the number of samples is slightly changed.

Modification of national residue plan Aggregate for all animal products and substances

Agriculture • Sample numbers for Nitrofurans have increased following positive findings in 2005 • Stanozolol has been added to the plan for bovines and equines • Metyltestosterone has been added to the plan for bovines • Matrix changes – Thyrostats in Poultry changing from Muscle to Serum • Sampling numbers adjusted downwards to reflect no positive findings for Bovines and Porcines for groups A3, A4, A5 & A6. Aquaculture In 2005 plan, Dexamethasone was categorised as a Group A3 compound however on request from the Commission in order to have the aquaculture plan in line with the rest of the national plans in Ireland it has been inserted in the 2006 plan as B2f ( other pharmacologically active substances). Non-compliant results Follow-up actions • 5 non-compliant results 1 target sample taken at a slaughter house in April • Furazolidone 2005 showed a positive level of 0.27 μg/kg. • Range from 0.10 μg/kg to Following extensive investigations at farm of 0.27 μg/kg origin of the animal, no evidence was found of • Liver presence or use of Furazolidone. 10 feed samples • Bovine were taken from the farm and all proved negative for the presence of Furazolidone. All sampling points instructed to implement sampling of 10% of animals presented from this herd. 4 further samples taken at a slaughter house in July 2005 showed positive for Furazolidone at levels ranging from 0.10 to 0.16 μg/kg. Inspectors from the Department’s Special Investigation Unit and at the sampling points continue to monitor this herd through increased sampling and no further positive findings or evidence of use of Furazolidone have been identified. • 1 non-compliant result 1 target sample taken at a slaughter house in July • Furazolidone
