The European Commission has adopted a series of transitional and permanent implementing measures to prepare for the application of the import provisions of the Animal By-Products Regulation as of 1 May 2003. The key objective of the Regulation was to revamp the veterinary legislation on animal by-products (i.e. parts of a slaughtered animal that are not consumed by humans), basically only allowing certain products to enter the feed chain.
