Al parecer la utilizaci(cid:243)n de animales que no son de cr(cid:237)a es una practica comœn en BØlgica. La Directiva 86/ 609/CEE (art(cid:237)culos 19, apartado 4) expresa con claridad que ello deber(cid:237)a ser la excepci(cid:243)n en vez de la norma. ¿Considera la Comisi(cid:243)n que la directiva se estÆ aplicando correctamente en BØlgica? 2. ¿Ha informado BØlgica a la Comisi(cid:243)n de la procedencia de los perros y gatos que utiliza para la investigaci(cid:243)n? 3. Segœn la Uni(cid:243)n britÆnica para la abolici(cid:243)n de la vivisecci(cid:243)n, los laboratorios belgas mantienen a los animales en pØsimas condiciones. ¿Ha dado pruebas el Gobierno belga a la Comisi(cid:243)n de que se han mejorado las condiciones y se cumplen los requisitos establecidos por la Directiva? 4. Aunque la Comisi(cid:243)n ha investigado la queja 97/3479, no parece que se hayan adoptado muchas medidas contra los laboratorios belgas que eran objeto de la queja. ¿Considera la Comisi(cid:243)n que las medidas adoptadas son suficientes?

De acuerdo con la Uni(cid:243)n BritÆnica para la Abolici(cid:243)n de la Vivisecci(cid:243)n (BUAV), parece ser que en BØlgica 2. es prÆctica comœn el empleo de animales no criados a ese fin.
