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

(70) On the other hand, there are some diseases which are of Union concern but for which it is not necessary to require Member States to eradicate the disease in question. It should be open to Member States to establish optional eradication programmes for such diseases if they decide that eradication is important for them. Such optional eradication programmes would be recognised at Union level and would entail the implementation of certain relevant disease control measures. They may also enable the Member State concerned, subject to approval by the Commission, to require certain guarantees when receiving animals from other Member States or from third countries.
