In reaction to the BSE epidemic in the EU, Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 laying down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) was adopted (this is known as "the TSE Regulation") and established for the first time in a uniform legal basis for the control and prevention of TSEs and BSE. The Regulation consolidated all previous EU legislation governing TSEs. It has been amended several times since its introduction and several additional measures have been amended or introduced to further eradicate, control and moni ...[+++]tor the spread of TSEs. In addition, other measures contribute to a comprehensive safety and surveillance regime governing TSEs. An important instrument among others is the food and feed controls Regulation (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on official controls performed to ensure the verification of compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare rules.

The 'Lessons to be Learned' report by the inquiry chaired by Dr Anderson puts the loss to the tourist industry alone at between 2.7 and 3.2 billion pounds, with government spending on FMD control amounting to 2.8 billion pounds (of which 1.3 billion pounds was compensation for farmers following the culling of their livestock). By comparison, annual total revenue from exports of live animals and animal products from the United Kingdom stands at 1.3 billion pounds.

Not, of course, that we are labouring under the misapprehension that controls which fully guarantee the safety of the food produced are possible in a capitalist system.
