         DECISION No 1/2014 OF THE COMMITTEE ESTABLISHED UNDER THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY AND THE SWISS CONFEDERATION ON MUTUAL RECOGNITION IN RELATION TO CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT
   of 1 April 2014
   on the amendment of Chapter 6 on pressure vessels, Chapter 16 on construction products and the update of legal references listed in Annex 1
   
      (2014/379/EU)
   
   THE COMMITTEE,
   Having regard to the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation on mutual recognition in relation to conformity assessment (‘the Agreement’) and in particular Articles 10(4), 10(5) and 18(2) thereof;
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               The European Union has adopted a new Directive on the transportable pressure equipment (1) and Switzerland has amended its legislative, regulatory and administrative provisions deemed equivalent under Article 1(2) of the Agreement to the above mentioned European Union legislation;
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               Chapter 6, Pressure vessels, of Annex 1 should be amended to reflect these developments;
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               The European Union has adopted a new Regulation on construction products (2) (hereinafter the ‘Construction Products Regulation’);
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               The Swiss legislation on construction products (Federal Law and Ordinance on construction products) is in the process of being amended; however, the Swiss ordinance on Accreditation and Designation (3), establishing the relevant framework requirements for the accreditation and designation of Swiss conformity assessment bodies is already in force;
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               Chapter 16, Construction products, of Annex 1 should be amended, in a first step, to reflect the adoption of the Construction Products Regulation by the European Union, and, until the adoption of Swiss equivalent legislation, to enable the Parties during an interim period to grant mutual acceptance of conformity assessment results showing compliance with the Construction Products Regulation; once Swiss legislation equivalent with the Construction Products Regulation is adopted, the Parties shall replace this amendment with a subsequent one reflecting the adoption of both the Construction Products Regulation and the revised equivalent Swiss legislation. It is understood that this decision is meant to ensure continuity in the activities of conformity assessment bodies during this interim period, and is without prejudice to the application of the principles of Article 1 of the Agreement;
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               Article 10(5) of the Agreement provides that the Committee may, on a proposal from one of the Parties, modify the Annexes to the Agreement,
            
         HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
   
               1.

               2.
            
            
               The Swiss Confederation shall accept conformity assessment results of EU recognised conformity assessment bodies assessing conformity in accordance with the requirements of the Construction Products Regulation. The European Union shall accept conformity assessment results of Swiss recognised conformity assessment bodies assessing conformity in accordance with the requirements of the Construction Products Regulation until the amendment of Chapter 16 following the adoption of equivalent Swiss legislation.
               Chapter 16, Construction products, of Annex 1 to the Agreement is amended in accordance with the provisions set out in Attachment B annexed to this Decision and shall apply during the interim period until such amendment.
            
         
               3.

               4.
            
            
               This Decision, done in duplicate, shall be signed by representatives of the Parties in the Committee who are authorized to act on behalf of the Parties. This Decision shall be effective from the date of the later of these signatures.

                     justified, the Parties shall take the measures necessary to ensure that the non-compliant transportable pressure equipment is withdrawn from their market.
                  
               
                     —
