VIJEĆE EUROPSKE UNIJE,

uzimajući u obzir Odluku Vijeća 2000/365/EZ od 29. svibnja 2000. o zahtjevu Velike Britanije i Sjeverne Irske da sudjeluju u nekim odredbama schengenske pravne stečevine (1), a posebno njezin članak 6.,

budući da:

(1)

Ujedinjena Kraljevina izrazila je namjeru da započne provoditi sljedeće dijelove schengenske pravne stečevine: pravosudna suradnja, suradnja u borbi protiv narkotika, članak 26. i članak 27. Schengenske konvencije i policijska suradnja.

(2)

Ujedinjena Kraljevina je izrazila spremnost da primjenjuje sve odredbe schengenske pravne stečevine navedene u članku 1. Odluke 2000/365/EZ, uz izuzetak onih odredaba koje se odnose na Schengenski informacijski sustav.

Ujedinjena Kraljevina nastavit će pripreme za provedbu važećih pravila Schengenskog informacijskog sustava i pravila o zaštiti podataka.

(4)

Poslan je upitnik Ujedinjenoj Kraljevini, čiji su odgovori uzeti na znanje te je poduzeta naknadna provjera i evaluacijski posjet Ujedinjenoj Kraljevini u skladu s postupcima koji se primjenjuju na području policijske suradnje.

(5)

Upitnik i posjet su pokazali da su zadovoljeni uvjeti koji se odnose na zakonodavstvo, razinu osoblja, osposobljavanje, infrastrukturu i materijalne izvore u vezi s primjenom schengenske pravne stečevine koja se odnosi na prethodno navedena područja.

(7)

Odlukom 2000/365/EZ, u njezinom članku 5. stavku 2., definira se koje se odredbe schengenske pravne stečevine primjenjuju na Gibraltar.

(8)

Vijeće Europske unije je s Republikom Islandom i Kraljevinom Norveškom sklopilo Sporazum o utvrđivanju prava i obveza između Irske i Ujedinjene Kraljevine Velike Britanije i Sjeverne Irske, s jedne strane, te Republike Islanda i Kraljevine Norveške, s druge strane, u područjima schengenske pravne stečevine koja se primjenjuju na te države (2).
