    DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE No 227/2023

    of 22 September 2023

    amending Annex II (Technical regulations, standards, testing and certification) to the EEA Agreement [2024/970]

    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 Regulation (EU) 2023/463 of 3 March 2023 authorising the placing on the market of bovine milk osteopontin as a novel food and amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2470 (1) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

    (2)

    Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/465 of 3 March 2023 amending Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 as regards maximum levels of arsenic in certain foods (2) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

    (3)

    Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/466 of 3 March 2023 amending Annexes II, III and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for isoxaben, novaluron and tetraconazole in or on certain products (3), as corrected by OJ L 71, 9.3.2023, p. 43, is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

    (4)

    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.
