DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE
No 86/2017
of 5 May 2017
amending Annex II (Technical regulations, standards, testing and certification) to the EEA Agreement [2019/198]
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) |

|
(2) |
This Decision concerns legislation regarding foodstuffs. Legislation regarding foodstuffs 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 XII of Annex II to the EEA Agreement. This Decision is therefore not to apply to Liechtenstein. |
|
(3) |
Annex II to the EEA Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly, |
