    Proposal for a

    COUNCIL DECISION

    on the position to be adopted, on behalf of the European Union, in the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Sub-Committee established by the Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the one part, and Georgia, of the other


    EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

    1.CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL

    Reasons for and objectives of the proposal

    The attached proposal for a Council decision establishes the Union position on a Decision by the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Sub-Committee under the Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the one part, and Georgia, of the other part ('the Agreement') on the modification of Annex XI of the Agreement. The Agreement was signed on 16 June 2014, and is provisionally applied in part, since 1 September 2014.

    The proposed modification aims to implement the provisions of Chapter 4 (Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures) of Title IV (Trade and trade-related matters) of the Agreement. In particular, in Article 55 of the Agreement Georgia committed to submit a list of Union sanitary and phytosanitary acquis to which it intends to approximate its domestic legislation. That list is to be added to Annex XI of the Agreement, by decision of the EU-Georgia Sanitary and Phytosanitary Sub-Committee.

    Consistency with existing policy provisions in the policy area

    This proposal implements the Union’s common commercial policy towards Georgia, an Eastern Neighbourhood Partner country, based on the provisions of the above-mentioned Agreement and in particular its objective to create a free-trade area between the parties. This proposal implements the Agreement's provisions that aim to boost agricultural trade between the parties and in particular improve agricultural export capacity of Georgia, on the basis of the Union acquis.

    Consistency with other Union policies

    This proposal is consistent with and contributes to the implementation of other external policies of the Union, notably the European Neighbourhood Policy and the development cooperation policy in relation to Georgia.

    2.LEGAL BASIS, SUBSIDIARITY AND PROPORTIONALITY

    Legal basis

    The legal basis for establishing the Union position to be taken in the committees set up by the Agreement is the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union ('TFEU'), and in particular its Article 207(4) in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof.

    Subsidiarity (for non-exclusive competence)

    The common commercial policy, in accordance with Article 3 of the TFEU, is defined as an exclusive Union competence. Therefore, the subsidiarity principle does not apply.

    Proportionality

    This proposal is necessary in order to implement the Union’s international commitments set out in the Agreement with Georgia.

    Choice of the instrument

    This proposal is in accordance with Article 218(9) of the TFEU, which envisages the adoption by the Council of decisions. There exists no other legal instrument that could be used in order to achieve the objective expressed in this proposal.

    3.RESULTS OF EX-POST EVALUATIONS, STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATIONS AND IMPACT ASSESSMENTS

    Ex-post evaluations/fitness checks of existing legislation

    Not applicable.

    Stakeholder consultations

    Georgia prepared the list of Union acquis to which it intends to approximate its domestic legislation, in line with appropriate domestic procedures. EU stakeholder consultations are not applicable to this proposal.

    Collection and use of expertise

    The Union made its expertise in sanitary, phytosanitary and animal welfare matters available to the authorities of Georgia for the purpose of preparing the list of Union acquis intended for approximation by that partner country.

    Impact assessment

    The trade and trade-related provisions of the Agreement have been subject to an ex-ante impact assessment in 2008, followed by the Commission DG Trade's Trade Sustainability Impact Assessment of 2012. That study confirmed that implementation of trade and trade-related provisions would have no negative impact on the Union, its acquis or its policies, while projecting a positive impact on the economic development of Georgia. This proposal does not have any impact on the economic, social or environmental policy of the Union.

    Regulatory fitness and simplification

    The Agreement is not subject to REFIT procedures at this stage; it does not imply any costs for the Union SMEs; and it does not raise any issues from the viewpoint of the digital environment.

    Fundamental rights

    The proposal does not have consequences for the protection of fundamental rights in the Union.

    4.BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS

    Not applicable.

    5.OTHER ELEMENTS

    Implementation plans and monitoring, evaluation and reporting arrangements

    The implementation of the Agreement is reviewed regularly by the EU-Georgia Association Council and its sub-ordinate bodies established by that Agreement. The European Commission also committed to report annually on the implementation of Title IV (Trade and trade-related matters) of the Agreement, including on the elements included in this proposal, to the European Parliament and the Council.

    Explanatory documents (for directives)

    Not applicable.

    Detailed explanation of the specific provisions of the proposal

    The proposal aims to adopt a Union position in relation to the amendment of Annex XI-B to the Agreement. In accordance with Article 55(4) of the Agreement, that Annex is to list the Union acquis to which Georgia intends to approximate its legislation in the area of sanitary, phytosanitary and animal welfare measures, for the purpose of achieving a status of equivalence for a product or a group of products, as provided for in Article 57 of the Agreement.

    Georgia prepared such a list of Union acquis in accordance with its domestic procedures, submitted the proposal to the commission in February 2015 and finalised it, in consultation with the European Commission, in December 2015.

    The EU-Georgia Sanitary and Phytosanitary Sub-Committee is empowered to take a decision on modification of Annex XI-B in accordance with Article 65 of the Agreement. In line with the provisions of that Article, the Sub-Committee monitors the implementation of Chapter 4 (Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures) of Title IV (Trade and trade-related matters) of the Agreement and takes decisions, as appropriate, on the modification of Annexes IV-XII to the Agreement.

In accordance with Article 431(4) of the Agreement, the provisional application of those provisions is effective from 1 September 2014.
