"This report provides rules for the movement of pets within the European area and how this should be done in accordance with the objectives of preventing the spread of diseases, particularly rabies.
Freedom of movement is one of the key pillars of the European Single Market. This issue is particularly pertinent for citizens of a Europe without borders, where we have witnessed an increased movement of pets between Member States.
We all agree that it must be possible to travel with pets, but we also all agree that this must be done in accordance with the set public health criteria in order to ensure a greater level of protection for human and animal health.
I therefore welcome the general passport system, which will harmonise hygiene measures, and the controls which facilitate the free movement of pets.
The report also provides a transitional arrangement until the end of 2011, so that some countries can prepare to put the necessary infrastructure in place."@en1
