DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE

No 73/2015

of 20 March 2015

amending Protocol 31 to the EEA Agreement, on cooperation in specific fields outside the four freedoms [2016/756]

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)

It is appropriate to extend the cooperation of the Contracting Parties to the EEA Agreement to include Decision No 1082/2013/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2013 on serious cross-border threats to health and repealing Decision No 2119/98/EC (1).

(2)

Liechtenstein shall bear all its costs stemming from its involvement in the activities under Decision No 1082/2013/EU.

This Decision shall enter into force on the day following the last notifications under Article 103(1) of the EEA Agreement (*).

Article 3

This Decision shall be published in the EEA Section of, and in the EEA Supplement to, the Official Journal of the European Union.
