Before the Annexes are amended the Commission shall inter alia consult producers of electrical and electronic equipment, recyclers, treatment operators and environmental organisations and employees' and consumer associations.

If the presence of extraneous agents is detected or suspected, the corresponding material shall be discarded or used in very exceptional circumstances only when further processing of the product ensures their elimination and/or inactivation; elimination and/or inactivation of such extraneous agents shall be demonstrated.

The SSC recommends a temporary ban on feeding MBM to all farmed animals and pets where a significant risk of cross-contamination of cattle feed with MBM possibly contaminated with the BSE agent is found.

The feeding of ruminants with ruminant meat and bone meal, which is the source of the infection, had already been forbidden in 1994. However, concerning the processing of meat and bone meal, the Commission had to open infringement cases against several offending Member States".

For the moment, infringement procedures against 13 Member States are under way. Most of them still concern insufficient heat and pressure treatment of meat and bone meal which is necessary in order to inactivate the BSE agent.
