What Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1184 - Union Carcass Classification Scales and Market Price Reporting for Beef, Pig and Sheep requires
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1184 lays down rules for applying Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 (the common organisation of agricultural markets) as regards the Union scales for the classification of beef, pig and sheep carcasses and the reporting of market prices. Slaughterhouses, classification agencies or qualified classifiers must communicate the classification results to the supplier of the animal, in paper or electronic form, indicating per carcass the classification letters and figures under Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, the established carcass weight (warm or cold), the carcass presentation applied, and whether an automated grading technique was used. On-the-spot checks must be carried out in all slaughterhouses applying compulsory carcass classification, without prior warning, by a body independent of the slaughterhouses, classification agencies and qualified classifiers (unless the competent authority itself carries out the controls). Where no risk assessment is used, fixed minimum frequencies apply: slaughterhouses handling 150 or more bovine animals aged eight months or more per week must be checked at least twice every three months on at least 40 carcasses, and those handling 500 or more pigs per week at least twice every three months. Competent authorities must keep reports of the checks and may revoke licences or approvals of classifiers or automated grading techniques where significant incorrect classification is found. For market-price recording, carcass presentation differing from the standard must be adjusted by corrective factors, Member States divide their territory into price-recording regions, beef prices are recorded for specified categories and conformation and fat cover classes, and designated operators (including slaughterhouses handling 20 000 or more bovine animals a year) must record the market prices.
