COMMISSION DECISION

of 6 March 2014

updating the Annex to the Monetary Agreement between the European Union and the Vatican City State

2014/C 73/06

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to the Monetary Agreement of 17 December 2009 between the European Union and the Vatican City State, and in particular Article 8(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Article 8 of the Monetary Agreement between the European Union and the Vatican City State (hereinafter ‘the Monetary Agreement’) requires the Vatican City State to implement Union acts concerning the rules on euro banknotes and coins, prevention of money laundering, prevention of fraud and counterfeiting of cash and non-cash means of payment; medals and tokens and statistical reporting requirements. Those acts are listed in the Annex to the Monetary Agreement.

(2)

The update of the Annex should be made according to Article 8(3) of the Monetary Agreement which foresees that the Annex needs to be amended by the Commission every year to take into account the new relevant EU legal acts and rules and the amendments to the existing ones. Following this provision one act is obsolete and five new Union acts, falling within the scope of Article 8(1) of the Monetary Agreement, have been adopted and should be included in the Annex.

(3)

Commission Recommendation 2009/23/EC of 19 December 2008 on common guidelines for the national sides and the issuance of euro coins intended for circulation is obsolete because it has been overruled by Regulation (EU) No 651/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2012 on the issuance of euro coins.

(4)

Regulation (EU) No 651/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2012 on the issuance of euro coins has been adopted.

(5)

Council Regulation (EU) No 566/212 of 18 June 2012 amending Regulation (EC) No 975/98 of denominations and technical specifications of euro coins intended for circulation has been adopted.

(6)

Decision ECB/2012/19 of the European Central Bank of 7 September 2012 amending Decision ECB/2010/14 on the authenticity and fitness checking and recirculation of euro banknotes has been adopted.

(7)

Decision ECB/2013/10 of the European Central Bank of 19 April 2013 amending Decision ECB/2003/4 on the denominations, specifications, reproduction, exchange and withdrawal of euro banknotes has been adopted.

(8)

Guideline ECB/2013/11 of the European Central Bank of 19 April 2013 amending Guideline ECB/2003/5 on the enforcement of measures to counter non-compliant reproductions of euro banknotes and on the exchange and withdrawal of euro banknotes has been adopted.

(9)

The Annex to the Monetary Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

This Decision shall enter into force on the 20th day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
