Suspension of the ban on holding livestock fairs in the CSC

With this decision, which will enter into force from Monday, the Basque Government and the three Member States of the Basque Country will put an end to the measures introduced a month ago, reducing the epidemiological risk.

Following the path taken by Navarre, the ban on the organisation of livestock fairs in the Basque Autonomous Community has also been repealed. The controls 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, which will allow the normal holding of several fairs around Christmas, such as Saint Lucia or St. Thomas.

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.

Spanish Government calls on the European Commission to authorise urgent vaccination in Hego Euskal Herria to combat nodule dermatosis

The aim of the Spanish Government is to inject all cattle into regions close to the border with the French State, namely the Basque Country, Navarra and Aragón, since in the last few hours new sources have appeared in the French State, also close to the border, with the aim of preventing the spread of the disease from reaching other communities.
