On 14 November 2005, the Council authorised the Commission to conduct negotiations within the framework of the Association Agreement, in order to achieve a greater liberalisation of reciprocal trade in agricultural products, processed agricultural products and fish and fishery products.












(4)


On 18 July 2008, the Commission concluded negotiations on behalf of the Community on an Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters with a view to amending the Association Agreement.

The measures necessary for the implementation of this Decision should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (2).

Where the Community needs to take a safeguard measure concerning agricultural products and fish and fishery products, as provided for in the Association Agreement, that measure shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 159(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 or in Article 30 of Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000. In the case of processed agricultural products, such safeguard measures shall, provided that the conditions laid down in the relevant provisions of the Association Agreement are met, be adopted in accordance with the relevant provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 2783/75 of the Council of 29 October 1975 on the common system of trade for ovalbumin and lactalbumin (7), Council Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 and Council Regulation (EC) No 1667/2006 of 7 November 2006 on glucose and lactose (8).

A.   Letter from the European Community

Sir/Madam,
I have the honour of referring to the negotiations which took place under Articles 9(4), 14 and 15 of 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 (the ‘Association Agreement’), in force since 1 June 2000, which foresees the possibility for additional mutual tariff concessions on processed agricultural products and provides that the Community and the State of Israel shall progressively establish a greater liberalisation of their trade in agricultural products and fish and fishery products.
On the conclusion of the negotiations, the two Parties agreed upon the following amendments to the Association Agreement:






1.


Article 7 shall be replaced by the following:
‘The provisions of this Chapter shall apply to products originating in the Community and in Israel other than those listed in chapters 1 to 24 of the Combined Nomenclature (CN) and of the Israeli customs tariff, and those listed in Annex 1(1)(ii) to the Agreement on Agriculture of the GATT.’










2.


Article 9 shall be deleted.










3.

4.

‘The provisions of this Chapter shall apply to products originating in the Community and in Israel listed in Chapters 1 to 24 of the Combined Nomenclature (CN) and of the Israeli customs tariff, and in Annex 1(1)(ii) to the Agreement on Agriculture of the GATT.’

‘The European Community and Israel shall meet three years from the date of entry into force of the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters signed at Brussels on 4 November 2009, which corresponds to the seventeenth day of Heshvan 5770 in the Hebrew calendar, to consider the possibility of granting each other further concessions of trade in agricultural products, processed agricultural products and fish and fishery products.’










8.


Article 15 shall be deleted.










9.

ANNEX III

COMMON DECLARATION ON GEOGRAPHICAL INDICATIONS

The Parties agree to come back at an appropriate time, in order to discuss a possible agreement on the protection of geographical indications for agricultural products and other foodstuffs.


B.   Letter from the State of Israel

Sir/Madam,
I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your letter of today’s date, worded as follows:

                  ‘Sir/Madam,
I have the honour of referring to the negotiations which took place under Articles 9(4), 14 and 15 of 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 (the ‘Association Agreement’), in force since 1 June 2000, which foresees the possibility for additional mutual tariff concessions on processed agricultural products and provides that the Community and the State of Israel shall progressively establish a greater liberalisation of their trade in agricultural products and fish and fishery products.
On the conclusion of the negotiations, the two Parties agreed upon the following amendments to the Association Agreement:






1.


Article 7 shall be replaced by the following:
“The provisions of this Chapter shall apply to products originating in the Community and in Israel other than those listed in chapters 1 to 24 of the Combined Nomenclature (CN) and of the Israeli customs tariff, and those listed in Annex 1(1)(ii) to the Agreement on Agriculture of the GATT.”










2.


Article 9 shall be deleted.










3.


The title of Chapter 3 shall be replaced by the following:

                                        
                                    

                                       “AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS, PROCESSED AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS AND FISH AND FISHERY PRODUCTS”.










4.


Article 10 shall be replaced by the following:
“The provisions of this Chapter shall apply to products originating in the Community and in Israel listed in Chapters 1 to 24 of the Combined Nomenclature (CN) and of the Israeli customs tariff, and in Annex 1(1)(ii) to the Agreement on Agriculture of the GATT.”










5.


Article 12 shall be replaced by the following:
“Agricultural products, processed agricultural products and fish and fishery products originating in Israel, on importation into the Community, shall be subject to the arrangements set out in Protocols 1 and 3.”










6.


Article 13 shall be replaced by the following:
“Agricultural products, processed agricultural products and fish and fishery products originating in the Community, on importation into Israel, shall be subject to the arrangements set out in Protocols 2 and 3.”










7.


Article 14 shall be replaced by the following:
“The European Community and Israel shall meet three years from the date of entry into force of the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters signed at Brussels on 4 November 2009, which corresponds to the seventeenth day of Heshvan 5770 in the Hebrew calendar, to consider the possibility of granting each other further concessions of trade in agricultural products, processed agricultural products and fish and fishery products.”










8.


Article 15 shall be deleted.










9.


Annexes I to VI shall be deleted.










10.


Protocols 1 and 2 and their annexes shall be replaced by those appearing in Annexes I and II to this Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters.










11.


A Common Declaration on geographical indications, appearing in Annex III to this Exchange of Letters, shall be added.




This Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters shall enter into force on the first day of the second month following the date of deposit of the last instrument of approval.’
               
The State of Israel has the honour of confirming its agreement with the content of this letter.
Please accept, Sir/Madam, the assurance of my highest consideration.
