CHAPTER 1.4 Animal health surveillance
Article 1.4.3 Principles of surveillance c) In addition, surveillance data should be supported by related information such as: ii) data on animal movements, including transhumance and natural wildlife migrations
CHAPTER 4.2.
Design and implementation of identification systems to achieve animal traceability
Article 4.2.3 5.c.iii) The registration of animal movements is necessary to achieve animal
these events constitute a movement.
CHAPTER 4.3.
Zoning and compartmentalization
Article 4.2 …. references to ‘import’, importation’ and ‘imported animals/products’ found in the Terrestrial Code apply both to importation into a country and to the movement of animals and their products into zones and compartments. Such movements should be the subject of appropriate measures to preserve the animal health status of the zone/compartment.
CHAPTER 8.7. Foot and Mouth Disease
Article 8.7.4 FMD free zone where vaccination is not practised Article 8.7.5 FMD free zone where vaccination is practised Article 8.7.14 Recommendations for importation (ruminants & pigs) from FMD infected countries or zones
Article 8.7.4 FMD free zone where vaccination is not practiced AND
To qualify for inclusion in the list of FMD free zones where vaccination is/is not practised, a Member Country should: 1) ….. 2) ….. 3) ….. 4) Describe in detail and supply documented evidence that these are properly implemented and supervised: a) …. b) …. c) the system for preventing the entry of the virus (including the control
Article 8.7.5 FMD free zone where vaccination is practised
Article 8.7.14 Recommendations for importation (of ruminants & pigs) from FMD infected countries or zones
Veterinary Authorities should require the presentation of an international veterinary certificate attesting that the animals: 1) showed no clinical sign of FMD on the day of shipment; 2) were kept in the establishment of origin since birth, or a) for the past 30 days, if a stamping-out policy is in force in the exporting country, or b) for the past 3 months, if a stamping-out policy is not in force in the exporting country, and that FMD has not occurred within a ten-kilometre radius of the establishment of origin for the relevant period as defined in points a) and b) above; and 3) were isolated in an establishment for the 30 days prior to shipment, and all animals in isolation were subjected to diagnostic tests (probang and serology) for evidence of FMDV infection with negative results at the end of that period, and that FMD did not occur within a ten-kilometre radius of the establishment during that period; or 4) were kept in a quarantine station for the 30 days prior to shipment, all animals in quarantine were subjected to diagnostic tests (probang and serology) for evidence of FMDV infection with negative results at the end of that period, and that FMD did not occur within a ten-kilometre radius of the quarantine station during that period; 5) were not exposed to any source of FMD infection during their transportation from the quarantine station to the place of shipment.
4.4.10 Animal movement records Definition: Records of animal movements for production and trade purposes. Advantages: – They are vital to surveillance and the control of many animal diseases, as well as for the prevention of some foodborne contaminations. – They allow the management of outbreaks of foodborne illness. – They provide valuable information for risk analysis and risk-based surveillance.
Animal movements may nevertheless be recorded at strategic points. – In Senegal, for example, the veterinary post of Rosso on the Mauritanian border records all the animals coming in or going out of the country. Staff at the veterinary post register origin, destination, name of the owner and type and number of animals crossing. Other veterinary posts located at the strategic nodes of animal circulation may also be able to provide data on animal movements and contacts. It is important to investigate what data are available locally.
GUIDE TO TERRESTRIAL ANIMAL HEALTH SURVEILLANCE (OIE) cont’d:
Animal Movement Management
Based on these findings, a number of possible interventions were suggested including implementation of regional disease control and addressing disease at source, facilitation of cross-border trade and harmonization of movement procedures, targeting of geographical critical points for disease control, and targeting individual stakeholders (traders, middlemen) for animal health interventions.
IV.2. Action Plan for Transboundary Animal Disease Control and Livestock Trade in the GMS
Asian Development Bank
Asian Development Bank
TA-6390 REG: Transboundary Animal Disease Control for Poverty Reduction in the Greater Mekong Subregion
TERMS OF REFERENCE Cross-Border Trade: Livestock Identification and Traceability System (LITS)
regional livestock identification and traceability system (LITS) to facilitate the control of transboundary livestock diseases, particularly foot-and- mouth disease (FMD), and to promote cross-border livestock trade and agribusiness investment.
CASP Phase I supported activities related to improving the management of livestock trade and transboundary animal disease control in the subregion including developing guidelines on livestock movement and a system for identification and tracking to facilitate trading of live animals in accordance with national health standards and international obligations. To further enhance these efforts, CASP Phase II will support the following:
animal and plant pests and diseases; and
trade of livestock.
