COUNCIL DECISION (EU) 2017/2105
of 10 November 2017
on the position to be adopted on behalf of the European Union within the Trade Committee regarding the amendment of Annex XII of the Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and Colombia and Peru, of the other part, setting out the list of Colombian procuring entities in accordance with the provisions of Title VI (‘Government Procurement’)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the first paragraph of Article 207(4), in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:

The Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and Colombia and Peru, of the other part, (‘the Trade Agreement’) has been provisionally applied with Colombia since 1 August 2013 (1). |
(2) |
Pursuant to paragraphs 1 and 3 of Article 14 of the Trade Agreement, the Trade Committee may adopt decisions by consensus, involving only the Union Party and the signatory Andean Country concerned (i.e. Colombia), provided that such decisions do not affect the rights and obligations of another signatory Andean Country. |
(3) |
The Trade Committee, during its fourth meeting on 24 November 2017, is to adopt the decision to agree on the modification of Subsection 2 of Section A to Appendix 1 of Annex XII (‘Government Procurement’).

The modification entails the inclusion of a note to Subsection 2 of Colombia's government procurement coverage to specify that ‘procuring entities’ cover all sub-central public procuring entities not having an industrial or commercial character. The Union and Colombia agree that such modification would not require compensatory adjustments. |

It is appropriate to establish the position to be adopted on behalf of the Union in the Trade Committee, as the decision will be binding upon the Union, |

Article 1
The position to be adopted, on behalf of the Union within the Trade Committee shall be based on the draft Decision of the Trade Committee attached to this Decision.
