(14)Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/591note amended Annexes V and XIV to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/404 in order, inter alia, to suspend the entry into the Union of consignments of poultry and germinal products of poultry, and of fresh meat of poultry and game birds from zone GB-2.466 in the county of Yorkshire in England, the United Kingdom, where an outbreak of HPAI was confirmed on 3 March 2026. By omission, point (1)(a)(x) in the Annex of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/591 changed the closing date to 3 March 2026 for zone GB-2.464 in the council area of Scottish borders, in Scotland, which was already suspended with a closing date of 24 January 2026 in Annex V to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/404 by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/342note, instead of adding the new zone GB-2.466 with a closing date of 3 March 2026. In Part 1 of Annex V to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/404, the new zone GB-2.466 is therefore currently not suspended for the entry into the Union of consignments of poultry and germinal products of poultry. The row for zone GB-2.464 in the entry for the United Kingdom in the table in Part 1 of Annex V should therefore be replaced in order to insert the correct closing date of 24 January 2026, and the row for zone GB-2.466 should be added to that table, with a closing date of 3 March 2026. Part 1 of Annex V should, therefore, be amended accordingly.
