G) In addition, Decision 2010/221/EU approved the eradi- cation programmes adopted by certain Member States in respect of the areas and the diseases listed in Annex II thereto. That Decision also approved the surveillance programmes regarding ostreid herpes virus 1 pvar (OsHV-1 pvar) adopted by certain Member States in respect of the areas set out in Annex III thereto. Certain continental parts of the territory of Finland and all the continental parts of the territory of Sweden are listed in Annex II to Decision 2010/221/EU as territories with an approved eradication programme as regards bacterial kidney disease (BKD). The coastal parts of the territory of Sweden are listed in Annex I to Decision 2010/221/EU as having an approved eradication programme as regards infectious pancreas necrosis virus (IPN). Finland has reported to the Commission that progress has been made in the eradication programme for BKD. Since 2012 no new BKD outbreaks have been detected in the area subject to the BKD eradication programme. Two farms, however, remain under restrictions since they are still in the process of cleaning and final testing to confirm their disease-free status with regard to BKD. In view of that, Finland has requested the extension of the period during which it may apply placing on the market and import restrictions as set out in Decision 2010/221/EU on consignments of certain aquaculture animals introduced into areas of its territory subject to an eradication programme with regard to BKD, in order to be able to finalise the approved eradication programme.
