The European Parliament and the Council adopted the Regulation on transmissible animal diseases (“Animal Health Law”) in March 2016. This is a comprehensive law which replaces a large number of rules which have accumulated over time. The Regulation was published in the Official Journal of the European Union in March 2016. The Regulation entered into force in April 2016, and will be applicable from April 2021.
A number of delegated and implementing acts will be drafted by the Commission in the course of 2019. Member States and stakeholders will be consulted with regard to these delegated and implementing acts.
