The attached proposal for a Council decision establishes the Union position on a Decision by the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Sub-Committee under the Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Moldova, of the other part on the modification of Annex XXIV of the Agreement. The Agreement was signed on 27 June 2014, and is provisionally applied, in part, since 1 September 2014. The proposed modification aims to implement the provisions of Chapter 4 (Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures) of Title V (Trade and trade-related matters) of the Agreement. In particular, in Article 181 of the Agreement the Republic of Moldova committed to submit a list of Union sanitary and phytosanitary acquis to which it intends to approximate its domestic legislation. That list is to be added to Annex XXIV of the Agreement, by decision of the EU-Moldova Sanitary and Phytosanitary Sub-Committee. This proposal implements the Union’s common commercial policy towards the Republic of Moldova, an Eastern Neighbourhood Partner country, based on the provisions of the above-mentioned Agreement and in particular its objective to create a free-trade area between the parties. This proposal implements the Agreement's provisions that aim to boost agricultural trade between the parties and in particular improve agricultural export capacity of the Republic of Moldova, on the basis of the Union acquis. |
