  5. EFSA technical hearingsmodernization of meat inspection

  6. Sheep and goats – 17/04/2012 FVE Expert: Frank O’Sullivan - Veterinary Ireland • Bovines – 25/05/2012 FVE Expert: Randi Stub Petersen - Danish Vet Association IT - Mr. Maurizio Ferri, Official Veterinarian -SIVEMP IE - Mr. Seamus Fagan - Veterinary Council DE - Mr. Thomas Ley - Germany - BundesverbandderbeamtetenTierärzte

  8. Sheep & Goats PARTICIPANTS • Copa-Cogeca • UECBV • FVE represented by Frank O’Sullivan

  9. FVE • FCI = connect and manage food safety risks • Private practitioners and CAs can be more active throughout the FCI • FCI for FBOs method of adding value and integrate their farm suppliers • FCI = full expression to the EU "prevention is better than cure"

  10. UECBV • FCI = unclear – Too general • PH risks at other steps (e.g. transport - retail) • Balance between FS/AH/AW & livestock production needed > impact the responsibility for cost attribution Copa-Cogeca • Strengthening FCI (farm level > voluntary quality systems - preferred to HACCP systems at primary production) • Consider slaughtering processes • Dressing operations (if carried out by the same worker) > NO increased microbiological risks

  11. Bovines • CLITRAVI - UECBV - VION company Occupational Hazards not considered

  12. - FCI > Optimising the flow and its content - FCI shall be linked to Herd Health Plans - Generalised bovine TBC > frequent condition for carcass condemnation • Some post mortem findings such as ketosis should be clarified • Environment protection policies consideration - Illicit sub. in bovine meat > almost half of all non compliances in meat samples from all species FVE could provide some data … UECBV • To consider hazards originating before-after the abattoir

  13. Farmed game Topics Weak points of Reg. 853/2004 Outcomes - FCI to strengthen  AM inspection. - Better check of farm records regularly and in details - Animals kept outdoors >> to be checked even by cutting (TB in deer) What is the cost of veterinary examinations ? There may be the danger of reducing the costs by saving staff and time.

  14. Solipeds Topics • Production of solipeds and meat • FCI • Slaughter practices compared to other domestic ungulates • Main post-mortem inspection findings • Reasons for carcass condemnation • Laboratory chemical/microbiological testing Outcomes • FCI not duly filled in • Injured animals excluded or sampled • Mainly respiratory conditions • Welfare issues prevalent
