This proposal constitutes the legal instrument for authorising the Union position to be taken in the European Union/Switzerland GNSS Committee established by the Cooperation Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Swiss Confederation, of the other, on the European Satellite Navigation Programmes. On 23 September 2013, the Council adopted its decision on the signing and provisional application of certain provisions of the Agreement. Subsequently, the Agreement was signed in Brussels on 18 December 2013 in the margins of the Council of the European Union. In accordance with Article 27(2) of the Agreement, it is applied provisionally from 1 January 2014. Switzerland ratified the Agreement on 7 July 2015, while at EU level the ratification is ongoing. The Agreement established a European Union/Switzerland GNSS Committee ("Joint Committee") for the management and proper application of this Agreement. Article 20(2) of the Agreement provides that the Joint Committee adopts its rules of procedure which shall contain, inter alia, provisions on the convening of meetings, the appointment of the chairman and the latter's term of office. The attached draft rules are the result of negotiations with Switzerland. |
