FMM/RAS/298: Strengthening capacities, policies and national action plans on

prudent and responsible use of antimicrobials in fisheries

The OIE Strategy on AMR and the Prudent Use of Antimicrobials

The OIE St rat egy support s t he object ives est ablished in

t he Global Act ion Plan on ant imicrobial resist ance (AMR),

developed by WHO wit h st rong cont ribut ion f rom FAO and

OIE. It ref lect s t he mandat e of t he OIE, t hrough four main

object ives:

Improve awareness and understanding

Strengthen knowledge through surveillance and research

Support good governance and capacity building

Encourage implementation of international standards

OIE Resolutions

(2015 & 2016)

OIE Resolution in 2015Specific recommendations were given at the OIE World Assembly of

Delegates in 2015 in the Resolution Nº 26 ‘Combating Antimicrobial

Resistance and Promoting the Prudent Use of Antimicrobial Agents in

Animals’.– 3. The OIE develop a procedure and standards for data quality for

collecting data annually from OIE Member Countries on the use of

antimicrobial agents in food-producing animals with the aim of

creating an OIE global database to be managed in parallel with the World

Animal Health Information System (WAHIS).

– 4. OIE Member Countries set up an official harmonised national

system, based on OIE standards, for the surveillance of antimicrobial

resistance and the collection of data on the use of antimicrobial agents in

food-producing animals, and actively participate in the development of the

OIE global database.

OIE Resolution in 2016

Resolution Nº 36 ‘Combating Antimicrobial Resistance through a

One Health Approach: Actions and OIE Strategy’:

– 5. OIE Member Countries fulfil their commitment

under the Global Action Plan on AMR to implement

policies on the use of antimicrobials in terrestrial and

aquatic animals, respecting OIE intergovernmental

standards and guidelines on the use of critically

important antimicrobial agents, and the phasing out of

the use of antibiotics for growth promotion in the

absence of risk analysis.

– 7. The OIE seek support to enable Member Countries

to implement the OIE Strategy and their national

action plans.

Reporting Options

The sect ions of t he OIE Templat e named ‘Report ing Opt ions’ 1 , 2 and 3,

collect t he act ual quant it ies of ant imicrobial agent s for use in animals.

o Reporting Option 1: dist inct ion of ant imicrobial agent s by t ype of use

o Reporting Option 2: dist inct ion of ant imicrobial agent s by t ype of use

and animal groups*

o Reporting Option 3: dist inct ion by t ype of use, groups of animals* and

rout es of administ rat ion

*For t he purposes of t he OIE dat abase, animal groups means: ‘t errest rial

food-producing animals’, ‘aquat ic food-producing animals’ or ‘Companion

animals’

Reporting Option and level of specificity of data on

In Europe more Member Count ries are able t o report

food-producing animals t han in any ot her region.

Second phase of data collection

Work on the animal biomass (denominator)

The OIE ad hoc Group on AMR works on t he

denominat or.

The Group acknowledged t he variabilit y in product ion

cycles and average weight s in animals around t he

world and recognised t hat precise dat a may current ly

not be available by count ry or region.

The report of t he ad hoc Group, once endorsed by t he

Commissions, will be published at t he OIE Websit e.

Conclusion

The f irst OIE Annual report shows a great commit ment

Member Count ries need support t o improve t heir nat ional

monit oring syst ems.

The aim in t he second OIE Annual report will be t o calculat e

dat a on animal biomass t o allow analysis by OIE Region.

Over t ime, t he OIE dat abase will be furt her developed t o

allow count ries t o provide t heir informat ion t hrough an
