Resumen

This Order implements Commission Decision 2002/757/EC of 19th September 2002 in Northern Ireland in so far as it relates to wood and bark. The Order prohibits the introduction and spread of the pest, Phytophthora ramorum, a fungus identified as causing Sudden Oak Death syndrome in species of oak in the USA and harm to other species of plants (art. 3). It imposes landing controls on wood of four species of forest tree. Wood of this description which originates in the USA and is despatched to the EC after 12 April 2003 must be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate issued in compliance with the various requirements of the Schedule (art. 4 and the Schedule). Imports of such material must be notified to an inspector at least three days before landing. The Order extends the ban in the principal Order on imports of isolated bark of Quercus to the other susceptible species. There is provision (art. 8) for licensed importation, movement and keeping of the prohibited pest for research purposes.
