(1) Whereas: The aim of the European satellite navigation policy is to provide the Union with two satellite navigation systems, the system established under the Galileo programme and the EGNOS system (hereinafter 'the systems'). These systems arise respectively from the Galileo and EGNOS programmes (hereinafter 'the programmes'). Each infrastructure is made up of satellites and a network of earth stations. Both of these infrastructures have applications in a variety of fields of activity. The Member States of the European Union should therefore undertake to use the existing or planned navigation systems effectively and equally to monitor and control the transport of animals in Europe.
