Conclusions and Closing RemarksConclusions and Closing Remarks

� From its inception in 1994, EMPRES has devoted itself and developed the basic building blocks required for GF-TADs

� It has responded, with essential technical input from FAO/IAEA, to member country requests for emergency actions, contingency planning, laboratory infrastructure, software development, capacity building, and strengthening compliance for disease reporting.

� The IDG / EMPRES is honoured by the OIE and WHO to host the Secretariat for GF-TADs; but with only 5 professional staff, this too needs addressing by the donor community.

� Livestock and the importance of healthy animals for food production needs to be brought to the attention and prioritisation at the Ministry level so that a long term commitment to this Public Good is achieved.
