EPPO Reporting Service no. 08 - 2004 Num. article: 2004/127

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


The EPPO Secretariat has gathered the notifications of non-compliance for 2004 received since the previous report (EPPO RS 2004/081) from the following countries: Algeria, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Guernsey, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Lithuania, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tunisia, United Kingdom. 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: In EPPO RS 2004/084, a report was made by the NPPO of France about a finding of imported Pelargonium plants infected by Ralstonia solanacearum, causing an outbreak which was later eradicated. Investigations done to trace back the origin of the material had shown that plants might have come from different origins. Among these, Israel was mentioned as possible one. The NPPO of Israel stressed that R. solanacearum is a regulated quarantine pest which is totally absent from its territory, and denied the fact that plants could have been produced in Israel.
