For short journeys between Member States and to third countries, organisers shall complete in TRACES the animal health certificate as set out in Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council on transmissible animal diseases ('Animal Health Law') |
The animal health certificate is already mandatory to transport animals between Member States under the Animal Health Law and requires information related to the operators, transporters, means of transport, type and numbers of animals transported, place of departure and place of destination. In addition, the animal health certificate has to be uploaded in TRACES. The simplified journey log proposed by the Commission is requiring the same information. To avoid double reporting and increase the administrative burden, we suggest replacing the requirement to fulfil a simplified journey log as proposed by the Commission by providing a valid animal health certificate.

It is overly bureaucratic to enter every short-distance transport into the TRACES system digitally, especially within the same member state. Not all farmers have digital skills, and the current TRACES system is too complex and would need to be simplified. A practical solution for carrying the logbook, independent of the TRACES system, is to be provided. Established livestock movement certificates, which already cover the content of the transport documents, are currently in use. Currently, for transports between member states, the official veterinarian is required to create and process the transport in the TRACES system anyway (including short distances). In the interest of reducing bureaucracy, the established system of animal transport documents should be retained.

The compulsory use of the TRACES electronic registration system and all its requirements even for short domestic journeys at this stage seems a disproportionate administrative burden, especially for small local operators. Most slaughterhouses already have digital systems in place that are used for logging journeys, and they would all have to communicate with TRACES directly to make this work. We suggest that if TRACES is to be used for logging journeys, it should be mandatory only for cross-border transport, according the rules of the Animal Health Law.

Including all journeys in TRACES would be an unnecessary increase of bureaucracy with no impact on animal welfare. The number of new users and journeys in the TRACES system would be immense. Most slaughterhouses already have digital systems in place that are used for logging journeys, and they would all have to communicate with TRACES directly to make this work. It would be extremely complex and expensive for all parties involved.

Organisers of short journeys within a member state should not be required to complete the journey log in TRACES, as this imposes unnecessary bureaucracy. Additionally, some farmers in remote areas may not have access to digital services, making the process even more burdensome. For these journeys, regular transport documents are sufficient, there is no need for adding administrative complexity.

The requirement of veterinary presence at each loading, would create impossible financial and economic burden to the Member States experiencing severe shortages with such professionals.

It is not realistic to require a veterinarian to be present at every loading. This requirement seems particularly excessive when only a small number of animals are being loaded. On-site monitoring can be conducted by the competent official body on a random basis, otherwise this regulation is unfeasible with the ever decreasing number of veterinarians in the European Union.

It is unrealistic to require a veterinarian to be present when the animals are loaded. It would be far more appropriate to entrust this responsibility to the certified professionals who accompany the animals throughout the journey.

The draft regulation includes provisions, such as the mandatory presence of a veterinarian during consignment clearance, that are likely to expand night-time work obligations. In the context of a widespread veterinary workforce shortage at EU level, this could present considerable human resource and financial challenges for competent authorities.

There are not enough veterinarians even to provide veterinary care in remote farming areas, or one that could be present every time animals are loaded to a vehicle or unloaded. Therefore producers and transporters are able and capable of loading and
unloading animals to the same high standard. Official supervision of loading and unloading of animals should be done based on a risk assessment, according to a control plan by the local competent authorities, adjusted to local circumstances.
This justification and amendment also apply to amendments to article 25 pts 2 and 3.

The requirement for a veterinarian to supervise loading is unworkable due to the lack of veterinary capacity in Ireland and across the EU. Trained stockmen are fully capable of ensuring animal welfare during loading and unloading. This amendment ensures practicality without compromising welfare standards.

In many MS there are not enough veterinarians even to provide veterinary care in remote farming areas, and certainly not enough that one could be present every time animals are loaded to a vehicle. It is also unnecessary since producers and transporters are capable of loading and unloading animals to the same high standard. Thus, official supervision of loading animals should be done based on a risk assessment, according to a control plan by the local competent authorities, adjusted to local circumstances.

The driver of the lorry or train is partially covered by this regulation, unless he or she is designated as attendant by the transporter of the animals as laid down in Article 18(4)(b). Therefore, he or she would exercise the role of driver-attendant, and all these obligations are associated with the role of attendant, not driver. It should be clarified in the text that the welfare obligations are the responsibility of the attendant, as defined and laid down in Article 3(13).

Inspecting animals every 4.5 hours during transport to evaluate their welfare and suitability for travel presents challenges in practicality, especially for certain species like poultry, which are loaded in transport crates, making individual assessments difficult. Additionally, there are logistical concerns about how these inspections would be implemented. Would the truck need to stop and inspect the animals individually each time, further extending the journey time? It’s essential to clarify whether alternative methods, such as using cameras in the loading area, could fulfil the inspection requirements.

Fallback amendment. Because of the sheer number of animals in transport and the fact that they are housed in containers, it is not technically possible to separate sick or injured animals during transport. Furthermore, doing so would be a time-consuming procedure and increase the journey time as a result. This is at odds with the objectives of this regulation. This provision would also be to the detriment of ducklings and goslings, whose specially designed containers would have to be opened during the journey in order to verify their condition. Doing so would expose these animals to rapid temperature decreases and external contamination.

Logistically, it would be very difficult for operators to check on animals which are transported in containers and placed in difficult for reaching places in the vehicle. Furthermore, such animals, often has specially designed containers which provide them with the necessary species-specific conditions for the transport. Opening of such containers could put those animals at risk from external factors.

The driver of the lorry or train is partially covered by this regulation, unless he or she is designated as attendant by the transporter of the animals as laid down in Article 18(4)(b).

The transporter shall be responsible for any animal that becomes unfit for transport during the journey due to the inappropriate performance by the attendant or driver of his or her tasks. | Amendment3. The driver or attendant shall be responsible for the welfare of the animals during the journey, and shall ensure that the animals have sufficient water, feed and rest and that the journey is completed without undue delay, with the sole exception of animals transported in containers. |
The transporter would not be able to fulfil the requirement laid down in the original text, as he or she is not present during the journey. The driver or attendant is responsible at this stage. It is virtually impossible to attend to poultry or rabbits during the journey, as they are transported in specially designed crates or containers. This equipment is designed to be securely fastened to the vehicle during transport, and cannot be opened by accident. Rabbits and poultry can therefore not be isolated during the journey. The general approach is already set out in Article 4(2)(b), namely to ensure that only those animals fit enough for the entire journey are loaded for transport.

The requirement to document every journey with real-time data in the TRACES system would lead to a disproportionate increase in bureaucracy, especially with regard to short journeys. Transport vehicles, especially for animal transport involving short journeys in small-scale agricultural operations, are typically used only sporadically. Equipping these vehicles, mostly trailers, with a tracking system is technically challenging, and ensuring the system's functionality is time-consuming. A distinction in the requirements between long-distance and short-distance transport is necessary.

| Text proposed by the Commission1. Means of transport by road shall be equipped with a positioning system communicating with the information system referred to in paragraph 3 based on the technical requirements referred to in paragraph 8. | Amendmentdeleted |
This provision needlessly implicates road transporters, who already have to operate under a specific monitoring and tracing system: TRACES. Since 1 January 2005, this system has served as the single compulsory point of reference for all Member States for the purposes of identifying and monitoring the transport of animals and animal products in accordance with established veterinary standards. Furthermore, since 2023, all lorries have been fitted with smart tachographs (version two). As well as journey times, rest periods for drivers and driving conditions (e.g. speed and distance travelled), these devices also record border crossings and loading and unloading operations.

The data obtained from this enables the authorities to monitor and penalise any breaches accordingly.

Each animal transport operation already has to be recorded. The data obtained from this enables the authorities to carry out checks and penalise any breaches accordingly. This requirement is therefore unnecessary and would serve only to increase the administrative burden. Monitoring animal transport in real time and in a transparent fashion would require each competent authority to have sufficient staff, which existing documentation practices would seem to render unnecessary.

| Text proposed by the Commission | Amendment8a. The new information system referred to in paragraph 3 shall only be implemented and used in the Union if it can be sufficiently ensured to function properly for all EU operators, including in practice. |
While digitalisation and simplification are important objectives, it is crucial to ensure that this legislative proposal does not leave operators liable to face additional administrative burdens. This proposal underestimates the burden of the not inconsiderable IT roll-outs that would undoubtedly be needed. Therefore, before requiring people to use new digital tools, it is vital to ensure that they are feasible since not all rural areas have decent internet coverage – and some none at all. Moreover, not all professionals have the technical equipment they need to use and complete forms online and in real time.

The compulsory use of the TRACES electronic registration system and all its requirements even for short domestic journeys at this stage seems a disproportionate administrative burden, especially for small local operators. Most slaughterhouses already have digital systems in place that are used for logging journeys, and they would all have to communicate with TRACES directly to make this work. We suggest that if TRACES is to be used for logging journeys, it should be mandatory only for cross-border transport, according the rules of the Animal Health Law.

It is not realistic to require a veterinarian to be present at every loading. This requirement seems particularly excessive when only a small number of animals are being loaded. On-site monitoring can be conducted by the competent official body on a random basis, otherwise this regulation is unfeasible with the ever decreasing number of veterinarians in the European Union.

| Text proposed by the Commission3. The organiser and the transporter shall monitor the indicators referred to in paragraph 1 and analyse the information collected upon completion of their transports. When the results of the analysis indicates that the requirements of Article 4 have not been met or when values quantifying the indicators exceed the thresholds established by the Commission in accordance with paragraph 5, they shall take corrective actions. | Amendment3. The organisers and the transporter shall monitor operations during transport. They may not be held responsible for unforeseen circumstances attributable to external causes that are liable to increase the journey time, nor may they be held responsible if any sections of the route are exposed to changing weather conditions between the point of departure and point of arrival. If they are able to do so, they shall take the requisite action based on the means at their disposal during the journey. |
Transporters compose their routes while taking account of any obstacles that they are likely encounter along the way, which may have a bearing on the scheduled route or journey time. They cannot comply with ‘requirements’, ‘values’, ‘thresholds’ or any other purely theoretical ‘indicators’, which are a far cry from actual driving conditions and the unforeseen circumstances these may occasion.
