On 23 June 2017, the Chief veterinary officers from the 28 EU member states agreed on a common way forward on emergency preparedness for transmissible animal diseases in the EU, during a working party of the Council of the EU in Malta.

The common way forward on emergency preparedness provides a number of elements aimed at strengthening common action in areas such as early warning systems and risk assessment, with the aim of improving the capacity in the EU to predict, prevent and respond to transboundary animal diseases.
