Minister Peci's root: Progress report exposes his statement to “progress” in AUV

Periscope

But, unlike the 2024 Progress Report, for veterinary and phytosanitary policies, we quote;

“In the area of food safety, Kosovo still needs to adopt the secondary legislation for the Law on Food and Strategy for harmonising the EU acquis in the field of veterinary and phytosanitary policies.
Food and Veterinary Agency's Human and Financial Resources Remain Insufficient for EU Acquis

In the field of veterinarian policy, while Kosovo received funding from the EU for rooting and vaccinating rage, the government still must pass a animal health law and abolish the 2004 Veterinary Law with a new one.

The agency has not yet approved a five-year development plan for monitoring and controlling diseases, and has not allocated resources for its implementation. Sources for farm-level animal health and well-being checks remain insufficient, including slaughterhouses and livestock markets”, It says among other things in the Progress Report.

Otherwise, this is not the first time Minister Faton Peci releases statements such as these are damaged by reports.

During this year, Periscopi had been reporting on this, including Minister Peci, exposed by the Green Report, this document of the Ministry itself that leads.
Peci had published some statistics, saying that with his rule, he had broken the record of a working land in Kosovo. However, the Green Report said otherwise.

K WAR 5: SUFFECTIONS, HAPPINESS AND PLACE COHESION

Chapter 12 Food security, veterinary and phytosanitary Kosovo politics is in the midst of a level of preparation and an average level of preparation in this area. Good progress has been made.

In particular, Kosovo took responsibility for the full financing of oral spread vaccine campaigns and finalised the laboratory information management system and the food management and tracking system, which is a prerequisite for a competitive agro-food sector.

Commission recommendations from last year have been addressed in part and remain largely valid. In the coming year, Kosovo must, in particular:

to ensure the sustainability of the food control system and management of the laboratory information management system; and to strengthen the administrative capacities of the implementing bodies by increasing the number and expertise of staff; → adopting the animal health bill; adopts the 5-year development plan for monitoring and controlling diseases; and providing adequate financial and human resources for their implementation;

begin work on harmonising and adopting legislation in the field of phytosanitary politics, in line with the EU acquis.

Veterinary and phytosanitary Politics . The EU's food acquis, including EU hygiene regulations for food production, ensure a high level of food and animal food security and a high-level protection of consumer interests. Animal health and well - being and the security of animal food are preserved along with seed quality, plant protection material, protection from harmful organisms, and animal food.

In the field of food security, Kosovo still has to adopt secondary legislation for the Law on Food and Strategy for harmonising the EU acquis in the field of veterinary and phytosanitary policies. Food and Veterinary Agency's Human and Financial Resources Remain Insufficient for EU Acquis

The financial and human resources of the Food and Veterinary Agency remain insufficient to implement the EU acquis.

The tracking system and food control management and the laboratory information management system are functional, but more resources are needed to strengthen and maintain systematically. After the transfer of 58 inspectors to the Ministry of Health, the agency must diligently recruit food inspectors, create an epidemiological unit and implement relevant legislation concerning the dangerous access to inspections within Kosovo, as well as imports. The agency continued its work on implementing the national plan for monitoring and monitoring food and animal diseases and successfully completed mandatory skills testing schemes with EU reference labs as part of laboratory accreditation. In the field of veterinarian policy, while Kosovo received funding from the EU for rooting and vaccinating rage, the government still must pass a animal health law and abolish the 2004 Veterinary Law with a new one.

The agency has not yet approved a five-year development plan for monitoring and controlling diseases, and has not allocated resources for its implementation. Sources for farm-level animal health and well-being checks remain insufficient, including slaughterhouses and livestock markets. Kosovo adopted a new administrative guideline for the identification and registration of animals. However, animal movements remain underreported and controls have not yet been strengthened. Kosovo must complete harmonisation of its legislation with EU legislation on animal welfare and provide adequate resources for its implementation. Kosovo has made some progress in identifying basic inter-compliance measures in the areas of food security, health and welfare of animals. Control lists and relevant instructions were prepared for the market to drop food, food for animals and wildlife by products, crucial, remains the implementation of a secure collection and destruction system of animal by products, as well as the adoption of the model for the operation of the existing reproductive plant.

Kosovo addressed the European Commission's findings for their national waste monitoring plan. In the field of phytosanitary policy, EU acquis approach has yet to improve. It is important to strengthen actions regarding polls, early detection, and rooting out the pests. Finally, Kosovo has not yet begun to work on developing the legal basis for new food and genetically modified organisms.
