of 26 June 2023
establishing the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the Joint Committee established by the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community as regards the adoption of a decision adding two newly adopted Union acts to Annex 2 to the Windsor Framework
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 50(2) thereof,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
The Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community (1) (the ‘Withdrawal Agreement’) was concluded by the Union by means of Council Decision (EU) 2020/135 (2) and entered into force on 1 February 2020. |
|
(2) |
Pursuant to Article 13(4) of the Windsor Framework (3), which forms an integral part of the Withdrawal Agreement, the Joint Committee established by Article 164(1) of the Withdrawal Agreement (the ‘Joint Committee’) is empowered to adopt decisions to amend the relevant Annexes to the Windsor Framework by adding newly adopted Union acts that fall within the scope of the Windsor Framework, but which neither amend nor replace Union acts listed in the Annexes to the Windsor Framework. |
|
(3) |
Regulation (EU) 2023/1182 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4), insofar as it does not amend Directive 2001/83/EC, and Regulation (EU) 2023/1231 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) are newly adopted Union acts that relate to the internal market for goods and therefore fall within the scope of the Windsor Framework. |
|
(4) |
The Joint Committee, during its next meeting, should adopt a decision pursuant to Article 13(4) of the Windsor Framework adding those two newly adopted Union acts to Annex 2 to the Windsor Framework. |
|
(5) |
It is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union’s behalf in the Joint Committee as regards the adoption of a decision adding two newly adopted Union acts to Annex 2 to the Windsor Framework, |
