THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Whereas:

The Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation on trade in agricultural products (1) (‘the Agriculture Agreement’) entered into force on 1 June 2002.

 

(2)

Under Article 19(1) of Annex 11 to the Agriculture Agreement, the Joint Veterinary Committee is responsible for considering any matter arising in connection with the said Annex and its implementation, and for carrying out the tasks provided for therein. Article 19(3) of that Annex authorises the Joint Veterinary Committee to amend the Appendices to Annex 11, in particular with a view to their adaptation and updating.

 

(3)

The first subparagraph of Article 5(2) of Decision 2002/309/EC, Euratom of the Council and of the Commission (2) provides that the Community position within the Joint Committee for Agriculture and the Joint Veterinary Committee is to be adopted by the Council on a proposal from the Commission.

 

(4)

The European Union should adopt the position it is to take within the Joint Veterinary Committee regarding the necessary amendments.

 

(5)

Decision No 1/2015 of the Joint Veterinary Committee set up by the Agriculture Agreement (‘Decision No 1/2015 of the Joint Veterinary Committee’) should enter into force on the day of its adoption.

 

(6)

In order to avoid a discontinuation of existing and well-functioning practices and to ensure a legal continuity which would not cause any foreseeable negative consequences, Decision No 1/2015 of the Joint Veterinary Committee should provide for the retroactive application of that Decision with effect from 1 January 2015,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The position to be adopted on behalf of the European Union within the Joint Veterinary Committee set up by Article 19(1) of Annex 11 to the Agriculture Agreement regarding the amendment of Appendices 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10 and 11 to Annex 11 shall be based on the draft decision of the Joint Veterinary Committee attached to this Decision.
