The Strategic Partnership Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and Japan, of the other part (1), (‘the Agreement’), was signed in Tokyo on 17 July 2018 and has been provisionally applied since 1 February 2019.

 

(2)

The Agreement establishes a Joint Committee to coordinate the overall partnership which is built upon the Agreement (‘the Joint Committee’) and provides that the Joint Committee is to adopt its own rules of procedure (‘Rules of Procedure’).
