The Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Lebanon, of the other part, was signed in Brussels on 1 April 2002 and entered into force on 1 April 2006. The attached proposal constitutes the legal instruments for the signature and provisional application of a Protocol to the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Lebanon, of the other part to take account of the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the European Union. On 14 September 2012, the Council authorised the Commission to open negotiations with the third countries concerned with a view to concluding the relevant protocols. The negotiations with the Republic of Lebanon were successfully concluded. The Commission was informed by the Verbal Note of 5 June 2014 that the text as proposed was accepted by Lebanon. The proposed Protocol incorporates the Republic of Croatia as a contracting party to the Agreement and commits the EU to providing for the authentic version of the Agreement in the new official language of the EU. The results of the negotiations have been judged to be satisfactory. The Commission requests the Council to adopt the attached decision on the signature and provisional application of the Protocol. |
