JOINT DECLARATION

The Council of the European Union and the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States, meeting within the Council, and the Republic of San Marino note that the Agreement on Cooperation and Customs Union between the European Economic Community and the Republic of San Marino of 16 December 1991 was signed before the most recent enlargement of the European Union and that, as a result, it was necessary to negotiate a Protocol of Adaptation, to enable the Agreement to be extended to the new Member States, which has been signed today. Pending the entry into force of this Protocol, the European Community and its Member States and the Republic of San Marino will apply it provisionally or definitively, as from the first day of the first month following the date on which the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of San Marino, of the other part, have notified each other that the necessary internal procedures have been completed. The Council and the Member States will take the necessary measures to ensure that the aforesaid Agreement on Cooperation and Customs Union enters into force at the same time.
