         of 13 December 2019
         amending Annex I (Veterinary and phytosanitary matters) to the EEA Agreement [2020/293]
         THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,

         Whereas:
         
                     (1)
                  
                  
                     Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1177 of 10 July 2019 amending Regulation (EU) No 142/2011 as regards imports of gelatine, flavouring innards and rendered fats (1) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.
                  
               
                     (2)
                  
                  
                     This Decision concerns legislation regarding veterinary matters.

This Decision is therefore not to apply to Liechtenstein.
