The Partnership and Cooperation Agreement establishing
a partnership between the European Communities and
their Member States, of the one part, and Ukraine, of
the other part (1), hereinafter referred to as ‘the PCA’,
entered into force on 1 March 1998.

Article 22(1) of the PCA provides that trade in certain
steel products shall be governed by Title III of
that
Agreement, with the exception of Article 14 thereof,
and by the provisions of an agreement on quantitative
arrangements.

On 30 May 2007, the Council adopted Regulation (EC)
No 752/2007 on administering certain restrictions on
imports of certain steel products from Ukraine (3)
in
order to implement the Agreement.

The Agreement in Article 10(4) rules that in the event
that Ukraine accedes to the World Trade Organisation
before the expiration of the Agreement, the Agreement
shall be terminated and the quantitative limits shall be
abolished as of the date of Accession.

On 16 May 2008 Ukraine became a member of the
World Trade Organisation.

On that date the Regulation to implement the Agreement

Second, the applicant claims that the contested decision violates
the principle of non-discrimination in that, on one hand, the
applicant is in the same position to other UK subsidiaries of the
Iranian banks, and is in materially comparable position to other
UK banks including UK banks trading with Iran, but has been
treated in a different manner and, on the other hand, is in a
significantly different position to another bank designated by
the United Nations Security Council but has been treated in the
same manner.
