5．菲律宾的进口肉类及肉制品管理的修订法规、条例及标准规程 （菲律宾农业部2005年第26号行政令） 2005年8月31日 鉴于， 近期暴发了一些高度传染性疾病。如禽流感的暴发在短期内迅速蔓延至亚洲和北美洲多个国家，并证实有许多人和禽类被感染； 鉴于， 牛海绵状脑病（疯牛病）已在欧亚大陆暴发流行，现已传播至北美洲。由于违反良好农业操作规范（GAP）行为（如将被感染的骨粉和内脏粉碎后掺入饲料）的存在就可能导致该病通过污染肉类或肉制品传播给人类，因此该病具有重要的国际检疫价值和公共卫生意义。 鉴于， 存在通过非法或不正当渠道进口肉类或肉制品行为，这不仅违背了国家关于消费品安全和质量标准的法律、法规和规章制度以及动物检疫措施的要求，也严重威胁着人类和动物的生命健康。 31 August 2005 ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER No. 26 Series of 2005 Subject: REVISED RULES, REGULATIONS, AND STANDARDS GOVERNING THE IMPORTATION OF MEAT AND MEAT PRODUCTS INTO THE PHILIPPINES WHEREAS, recent outbreaks of highly communicable diseases, e.g., Avian Influenza or “Bird Flu” that spread across countries in Asia and North America over a short period of time, have claimed a number of human lives and poultry populations; WHEREAS, Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy or “Mad Cow Disease” has spread across continents from Europe to Asia and now in North America and has remained a major international quarantine importance and public safety concern because of violations on Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) (e.g. milling into feeds infected bone and offal) thus its possible transmission to uman beings due to entry of contaminated meat and/or meat products; WHEREAS, violation of the country’s laws, rules and regulations on consumer product safety and quality standards and animal quarantine measures through illegal entry of meat and meat products as well as non-compliance thereof poses serious threat to human and animal health/life; WHEREAS, it is a paramount objective of the government to protect its borders and territories from the entry, establishment and spread of animal disease that may be introduced by the importation of disease-carrying, contaminated, and/or adulterated meat and/or meat products, which endanger the lives and safety/health of the consuming public and which could bring potentially serious economic consequences to the livestock, poultry and related industries; 鉴于，政府的首要目标是保护国家的进口防线，防止因进口携带疾病或已被污染或者次等的肉类而导致动物疾病的传入、产生和传播，从而威胁到公众的生活
