DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE
No 299/2019
of 13 December 2019
amending Annex II (Technical regulations, standards, testing and certification) to the EEA Agreement [2020/317]
THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,
Having regard to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (‘the EEA Agreement’), and in particular Article 98 thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Commission Regulation (EU) 2016/1067 of 1 July 2016 amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 110/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the definition, description, presentation, labelling and the protection of geographical indications of spirit drinks (1) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement. |
|
(2) |
Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/1098 of 2 August 2018 amending and correcting Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 110/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the definition, description, presentation, labelling and the protection of geographical indications of spirit drinks (2) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement. |
|
(3) |
Commission Regulation (EU) 2019/335 of 27 February 2019 amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 110/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the registration of the spirit drink ‘Tequila’ as a geographical indication (3) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement. |
|
(4) |
Commission Regulation (EU) 2019/674 of 29 April 2019 amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 110/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the definition, description, presentation, labelling and the protection of geographical indications of spirit drinks (4) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement. |
|
(5) |
This Decision concerns legislation regarding spirit drinks. Legislation regarding spirit drinks shall not apply to Liechtenstein as long as the application of the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation on trade in agricultural products is extended to Liechtenstein, as specified in the introduction to Chapter XXVII of Annex II to the EEA Agreement. This Decision is therefore not to apply to Liechtenstein. |
|
(6) |
Annex II to the EEA Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly, |
