COUNCIL DECISION

of 24 October 2008

on the conclusion of a Protocol between the European Community, the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein to the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Switzerland

(2009/487/EC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 63(1)(a) thereof, in conjunction with the first sentence of the first subparagraph of Article 300(2) and the first subparagraph of Article 300(3) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas:

 

(1)

On 27 February 2006 the Council authorised the Commission to open negotiations, on behalf of the Community, with the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein to conclude a Protocol on the participation of Denmark in the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Switzerland (hereinafter referred to as the Protocol). These negotiations have been finalised.

 

(2)

In accordance with the Decision of the Council of 28 February 2008, and subject to its final conclusion at a later date, this Protocol was signed, on behalf of the European Community, on 28 February 2008.

 

(3)

The Protocol should be approved.

 

(4)

The entry into force of the Protocol with respect to Switzerland is linked to the putting into effect of the Agreement between the European Union, the European Community and the Swiss Confederation on the Swiss Confederation’s association with the implementation, application and development of the Schengen acquis  (2) and of the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Switzerland (3).

 

(5)

The entry into force of the Protocol with respect to Liechtenstein is linked to the putting into effect of the Protocol between the European Union, the European Community, the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein on the accession of the Principality of Liechtenstein to the Agreement between the European Union, the European Community and the Swiss Confederation on the Swiss Confederation’s association with the implementation, application and development of the Schengen acquis (hereinafter referred to as Protocol on the association of Liechtenstein with the Schengen acquis) and of the Protocol between the European Community, the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein on the accession of Liechtenstein to the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Switzerland (hereinafter referred to as Protocol on the association of Liechtenstein with the Dublin acquis). Consequently, the deposit of the instrument of approval as regards Liechtenstein should not take place before the approval by the Council of the Protocol on the association of Liechtenstein with the Schengen acquis and of the Protocol on the association of Liechtenstein with the Dublin acquis.

 

(6)

The United Kingdom and Ireland, in accordance with Article 3 of the Protocol on the position of the United Kingdom and Ireland annexed to the Treaty on the European Union and the Treaty establishing the European Community,...
