Poland concerned over EU veterinary and hygiene laws
11/07/2002
Poland, a European Union aspirant, is experiencing difficulties in its negotiations with the EU. Obstacles include the adoption of EU procedures in Polish abattoirs and dairies, cattle registration and the utilisation of fallen animals. Poland has been warned that, if the negotiations do not make progress, the country’s accession to the EU – originally scheduled for the end of this year – will be delayed.
