Derefter kan medlemsstaterne afgøre, om de helst vil oplagre kød fra køer og selv betale omkostningerne, eller om de straks vil fjerne kødet fra markedet. I hvert fald vil vi sammen med medlemsstaterne give landmændene en erstatning for dyrets værdi efter fordelingsnøglen 30% til medlemsstaten og 70% til EU.
As soon as compulsory BSE tests for animals over 30 months old have been introduced in all the Member States, we want to replace the programme of safe removal with a new special buy-up programme which allows the Member States to decide if they prefer to store beef at their own expense or if they want to remove this meat from the market straight away, in which case we and the Member States will compensate farmers jointly for the value of the animal in a ratio of 30% from the Member State and 70% from the EU.
