    DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE

    No 251/2017

    of 15 December 2017

    amending Protocol 47 (on the abolition of technical barriers to trade in wine) to the EEA Agreement [2019/1657]

    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 Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1353 of 19 May 2017 amending Regulation (EC) No 607/2009 as regards the wine grape varieties and their synonyms that may appear on wine labels (1) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

    (2)

    This Decision concerns legislation regarding wine. Legislation regarding wine 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 seventh paragraph of the introduction to Protocol 47 to the EEA Agreement. This Decision is therefore not to apply to Liechtenstein.

    (3)

    Protocol 47 to the EEA Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly,

    Article 2

    The text of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/1353 in the Icelandic and Norwegian languages, to be published in the EEA Supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union, shall be authentic.

    Article 3

    Article 4
