The Regional Convention on pan-Euro-Mediterranean preferential rules of origin ('the Convention') lays down provisions on the origin of goods traded under relevant Agreements concluded between the Contracting Parties. The EU and Israel signed the Convention on 15 June 2011 and 10 October 2013 respectively. The EU and Israel deposited their instrument of acceptance with the depositary of the Convention on 26 March 2012 and 28 August 2014 respectively. As a consequence, the Convention entered into force in relation to the EU and Israel on 1 May 2012 and on 1 October 2014 respectively. Article 6 of the Convention provides that each Contracting Party shall take appropriate measures to ensure that the Convention is effectively applied. To that effect, the Association Council established by the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the State of Israel, of the other part, should adopt a Decision replacing Protocol 4 concerning the definition of the concept of 'originating products' and methods of administrative cooperation by a new Protocol which, with regard to the rules of origin, refers to the Convention. The position to be taken by the EU within the Association Council should be established by the Council. |
