            DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE No 110/2023
of 28 April 2023
         
amending Protocol 47 to the EEA Agreement, on the abolition of technical barriers to trade in wine [2023/2263]

(2)


Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/841 of 24 May 2022 conferring protection under Article 99 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the name ‘Bolandin’ (PDO) (2) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

This Decision concerns legislation regarding wine. Legislation regarding wine 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 seventh paragraph of the introduction to Protocol 47 to the EEA Agreement. This Decision is therefore not to apply to Liechtenstein.
