DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE
No 291/2019
of 13 December 2019
amending Annex II (Technical regulations, standards, testing and certification) to the EEA Agreement [2020/309]
THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,
Having regard to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (‘the EEA Agreement’), and in particular Article 98 thereof,

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.
