Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 on transmissible animal diseases and amending and repealing certain acts in the area of animal health (‘Animal Health Law’) (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(59) A key purpose of disease notification and reporting is to generate reliable, transparent and accessible epidemiological data. A computerised interactive information system for the effective collection and management of surveillance data should be established at Union level for listed diseases and, when relevant, for emerging diseases or antimicrobial-resistant pathogens. That system should promote optimal data availability, facilitation of data exchange, and reduction of administrative burdens for the competent authorities of the Member States by merging disease notification and reporting within the Union and at international level into a single process operated through the database of the OIE. Steps should also be taken to ensure consistency in exchanges of information in accordance with Directive 2003/99/EC.
