BTSF training for national experts on Feed Hygiene and animal by-products.

Article 116(4) of Regulation (EU) 2017/625 provides for participation of experts from the Member States (national experts) in Commission controls in Member States and in non-EU countries. National experts accompanying Commission experts are given the same rights of access as the Commission experts.

To ensure a harmonised approach by national experts while assisting Commission experts, the Commission intends to arrange a remote training event on official controls in the area of New Legislation on Animal Health.
