According to the information submitted by France, Germany and Slovakia, the emergency vaccination of feral pigs was stopped. In addition, a high level of surveillance in the areas previously affected by the disease is maintained as part of the programmes approved by Implementing Decision 2012/761/EU. The measures provided for in the plans for the eradication of classical swine fever and the emergency vaccination of feral pigs against classical swine fever approved for those Member States are therefore no longer necessary.
Therefore, the following decisions are repealed:
- 2003/135/EC of 27 February 2003 on the approval of the plans for the eradication of classical swine fever and the emergency vaccination of feral pigs against classical swine fever in Germany, in the federal states of Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland.
- 2004/832/CE 2004/832/EC of 3 December 2004 approving the plans for the eradication of classical swine fever in feral pigs and the emergency vaccination of such pigs in the Northern Vosges, France.
- 2005/59/EC of 26 January 2005 approving the plans for the eradication of classical swine fever in feral pigs and the emergency vaccination of such pigs in Slovakia.
