Council Directive 2002/60/EC of 27 June 2002 laying down specific provisions for the control of African swine fever and amending Directive 92/119/EEC as regards Teschen disease and African swine fever (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

In the case of holdings where the occurrence of disease has been linked to vectors, restocking shall not take place for at least six years unless: specific operations to eliminate the vector from the premises and places where the pigs are to be kept or can come into contact with the vector have been successfully carried out under official supervision, or it has been possible to show that the persistence of the vector no longer represents a significant risk of African swine fever being transmitted. Thereafter, the measures laid down in paragraph 3(a) shall apply. In addition to those measures, however, no pig may leave the holding in question after full repopulation until further serological examinations for African swine fever have been carried out with negative results on samples collected from the pigs in the holding at the earliest 60 days after full repopulation, in accordance with the diagnostic manual.
