EPPO report on notifications of non-compliance (detection of regulated pests)


The EPPO Secretariat has gathered the notifications of non-compliance for 2003 received since the previous report (EPPO RS 2004/018) from the following countries: France, Germany, Israel and Netherlands. When a consignment has been re-exported and the country of origin is unknown, the re-exporting country is indicated in brackets. When the occurrence of a pest in a given country is not known to the EPPO Secretariat, this is indicated by an asterisk (*).

The EPPO Secretariat has selected notifications of non-compliance made because of the detection of regulated pests. Other notifications of non-compliance due to prohibited commodities, missing or invalid certificates are not indicated. It must be pointed out that the report is only partial, as many EPPO countries have not yet sent their notifications.

Note: The EPPO RS 2004/018 mentioned the interception of Spodoptera litura in Dianthus cut flowers from Israel by the Netherlands. A correction should be made as the intercepted organism was Spodoptera littoralis (S. litura is absent in the EPPO region). A revised notification has been sent to Israel.
