of 14 June 2013
         
amending Annex I (Veterinary and phytosanitary matters) to the EEA Agreement


THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,

Having regard to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (‘the EEA Agreement’), and in particular Article 98 thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


Commission Regulation (EU) No 1064/2012 of 13 November 2012 amending Annex X to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the list of rapid tests (1) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

(3)


Commission Implementing Decision 2012/762/EU of 6 December 2012 amending Decision 2009/821/EC as regards the lists of border inspection posts and veterinary units in Traces (3) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

Regulation (EU) No 1190/2012 repeals Commission Regulation (EC) No 584/2008 (5), which is incorporated into the EEA Agreement and which is consequently to be repealed under the EEA Agreement.












(6)


This Decision concerns legislation regarding veterinary matters. Legislation regarding veterinary matters shall not apply to Liechtenstein as long as the application of the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation on trade in agricultural products is extended to Liechtenstein, as specified in the sectoral adaptations to Annex I to the EEA Agreement.
