Decision (EU) 2019/937 on the position to be taken in the framework of the Convention for the Conservation of Salmon in the North Atlantic Ocean as regards the United Kingdom’s application for accession

Summary:

Council Decision of 27 May 2019 establishing the position to be taken on behalf of the Union regarding the application for accession to the NASCO Convention submitted by the United Kingdom.

Further information:

In March 2017, the United Kingdom notified the European Council of its intention to withdraw from the European Union. Consequently, the United Kingdom will become a third country and Union law will cease to apply to it from the date of entry into force of a withdrawal agreement.

The Convention for the Conservation of Salmon in the North Atlantic Ocean (the NASCO Convention) currently applies to the United Kingdom as a result of the Union being a Contracting Party to this Convention. In February 2019, the United Kingdom submitted an application to accede to the NASCO Convention as a Contracting Party in view of a possible absence of a withdrawal agreement.
