DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE No 225/2018

of 5 December 2018

amending Annex I (Veterinary and phytosanitary matters) to the EEA Agreement [2021/1492]

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 Implementing Decision (EU) 2017/2174 of 20 November 2017 amending Annex E to Council Directive 92/65/EEC as regards the health certificate for trade in bees and bumble bees (1) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

(2)

This Decision concerns legislation regarding live animals other than fish and aquaculture animals. Legislation concerning these matters shall not apply to Iceland, as specified in paragraph 2 of the Introductory Part of Chapter I of Annex I to the EEA Agreement. This Decision is therefore not to apply to Iceland.

(3)

This Decision concerns legislation regarding veterinary matters. Legislation regarding veterinary matters 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 sectoral adaptations to Annex I to the EEA Agreement. This Decision is therefore not to apply to Liechtenstein.
