of 29 September 2022
on the position to be taken on behalf of the Union within the Joint Committee established by the Framework Agreement on Partnership and Cooperation between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and Mongolia, of the other part, concerning the establishment of a specialised working group on development cooperation
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 209, in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
The Framework Agreement on Partnership and Cooperation between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and Mongolia, of the other part (1) (the ‘Agreement’) was concluded by the Union by means of Council Decision (EU) 2017/2270 (2) and entered into force on 1 November 2017. |
|
(2) |
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Joint Committee established by the Agreement (the ‘Joint Committee’) may set up specialised working groups in order to assist it in the performance of its tasks. Those working groups are to make detailed reports on their activities to the Joint Committee at each of its meetings. |
|
(3) |
The Union and Mongolia have both expressed interest in setting up a specialised working group on development cooperation in order to formalise and deepen development cooperation between the Parties and provide input to the Joint Committee. |
|
(4) |
The Joint Committee, during its fourth session or, if appropriate, by written procedure before that session in accordance with its Rules of Procedure, is to adopt a decision on the establishment of a specialised working group on development cooperation and the adoption of its terms of reference. |
|
(5) |
It is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union’s behalf in the Joint Committee, as the decision of the Joint Committee will be binding on the Union. |
|
(6) |
The position of the Union within the Joint Committee should therefore be based on the attached draft Decision, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
1. The position to be taken on the Union’s behalf in the fourth session of the Joint Committee, or, if appropriate, by written procedure before that session, shall be based on the draft Decision of the Joint Committee attached to this Decision.
