THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 194(2), in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
On 29 April 2021, the Council adopted Decision (EU) 2021/689 (1) on the conclusion of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, of the one part, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, of the other part (2) (‘the Trade and Cooperation Agreement’). The Trade and Cooperation Agreement entered into force on 1 May 2021. |
(2) |
Article 8(1), point (l), of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement established the Specialised Committee on Energy. Its competences are set out in Article 8(4) of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement. |
(3) |
Article 8(4), point (f), of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement empowers the Specialised Committee on Energy to establish, supervise, coordinate and dissolve Working Groups. Pursuant to Article 9(2) of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, any established Working Group is, under the supervision of a Committee, to assist that Committee in the performance of its tasks and, in particular, prepare the work of that Committee and carry out any task assigned to the Working Group by that Committee. Article 9(4) of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides that any established Working Group is to set its own rules of procedure, meeting schedule and agenda by mutual consent. |
(4) |
It is appropriate for the Specialised Committee on Energy to establish, pursuant to Article 8(4), point (f), of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, a Working Group on Security of Supply, to operate under its supervision. The Working Group on Security of Supply should set its rules of procedure in accordance with Council Decision (EU) 2023/2193 (3) and should report regularly on its activities to the Specialised Committee on Energy. |
(5) |
The Working Group on Security of Supply should enhance cooperation between the Union and the United Kingdom in the area of security of supply. It should serve as a forum for cooperation, the exchange of information, technical discussions and mutual consultation. With the exception of setting its own rules of procedure, the Working Group on Security of Supply is not intended to adopt acts or measures having legal effect. |
(6) |
It is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union’s behalf within the Specialised Committee on Energy, as the decision of the Specialised Committee on Energy will be binding on the Union, |
