Following the path taken by Navarre, the ban on the organisation of livestock fairsin the Basque Autonomous Communityhas also been repealed . Thecontrols against nodular dermatosis have not detected any positive effects on cattle in recent weeks, and considering that the level of risk has decreased, the Government and the three Member States have agreed to suspend the measure.

The decision will be effective from 1 December , so that a number of fairs such as Saint Lucia or St. Thomascan be held normally around Christmas.

The ban was imposed just over a month ago, when the livestock sector expressed concern and disagreement. Since then, other strict controls and preventive measures have remained in force and will remain so until 15 January.

These measures include the prohibition of access to the CSC for animals from restricted areas, unless they are properly vaccinated, as well as the obligation to comply with a period of observation of 21 days for cattle arriving from abroad under the supervision of official veterinarians.

The authorities have indicated that the measures will be extended at least until mid-January, and that changes will be considered on the basis of developments in the epidemiological situation.

Thus, the fair calendar has returned to normal, keeping the usual appointments for both the sector and the citizens intact.
