            Proposal for a
            COUNCIL DECISION
            on the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the Trade Committee established by the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Korea, of the other part, as regards the amendment of Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement
            
               
         
         
            
               EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
            
            
               1.Subject matter of the proposal
            
            
               This proposal concerns the position to be adopted on behalf of the Union within the Trade Committee established by Article 15.1 of the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Korea on the other part , as regards the amendment of Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement. 
            
            
               2.Context of the proposal
            
            
               2.1.The EU-Republic of Korea Free Trade Agreement 
            
            
               The Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Korea on the other part ("The Parties" and " the FTA" or "the Agreement") is the European Union’s first new generation trade agreement and also the first concluded with an Asian country. The aim of the Agreement is to boost bilateral trade and economic growth in both the EU and Korea. 
            
            
               The Agreement, which was concluded by the Union on 1 October 2015
                  1
               , has been applied since 1 July 2011
                  2
               . 
            
            
               2.2.The Trade Committee
            
            
               The Trade Committee established under Article 15.1 of the Agreement may decide to amend Appendices 2-C- 2 and 2- C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement pursuant Article 15.5.2 of the Agreement. 
            
            
               2.3.The envisaged act of the Trade Committee
            
            
               Article 3(d) of Annex 2-C of the Agreement mandates the Parties to review Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C no less than every three years from the entry into force of the Agreement with a view to furthering the acceptance of products as set out in subparagraph (a) of the same Article, taking into account any regulatory developments that may have occurred internationally or in the Parties. It further specifies that any modifications to Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 shall be decided upon by the Trade Committee.
            
            
               3.Position to be taken on the Union's behalf
            
            
               The Treaties bestow on the Union an exclusive competence for the common commercial policy, which includes the Union's autonomous trade policy as well as the conclusion of international trade agreements. Considering that the envisaged act leads to the satisfactory functioning and the efficient implementation of the FTA, the adoption of the envisaged act fits the objectives of the Union trade policy. 
            
            
               4.Legal basis
            
            
               4.1.Procedural legal basis
            
            
               4.1.1.Principles
            
            
               Article 218(9) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) provides for decisions establishing ‘the positions to be adopted on the Union’s behalf in a body set up by an agreement, when that body is called upon to adopt acts having legal effects, with the exception of acts supplementing or amending the institutional framework of the agreement.’
            
            
               The concept of ‘acts having legal effects’ includes acts that have legal effects by virtue of the rules of international law governing the body in question. 
            
            
               4.1.2.Application to the present case
            
         
         
            
               The Trade Committee is a body set up by an agreement, namely the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Korea on the other part.
            
            
               The act which the Trade Committee is called upon to adopt constitutes an act having legal effects. The envisaged act will be binding under international law in accordance with Article 15.5.2 of the FTA. 
            
            
               The envisaged act does not supplement or amend the institutional framework of the Agreement.
            
            
               Therefore, the procedural legal basis for the proposed decision is Article 218(9) TFEU.
            
            
               4.2.Substantive legal basis
            
            
               4.2.1.Principles
            
            
               The substantive legal basis for a decision under Article 218(9) TFEU depends primarily on the objective and content of the envisaged act in respect of which a position is taken on the Union's behalf. If the envisaged act pursues two aims or has two components and if one of those aims or components is identifiable as the main one, whereas the other is merely incidental, the decision under Article 218(9) TFEU must be founded on a single substantive legal basis, namely that required by the main or predominant aim or component.
            
            
               4.2.2.Application to the present case
            
            
               The envisaged act pursues objectives and has components in the area of the common commercial policy. These elements of the envisaged act are inseparably linked without one being incidental to the other.
            
            
               Therefore, the substantive legal basis of the proposed decision comprises the following provisions: Article 207 of the TFEU.
            
            
               4.3.Conclusion
            
            
               The legal basis of the proposed decision should be Article 207, in conjunction with Article 218(9) TFEU.
            
            
               5.Publication of the envisaged act
            
            
               As the act of the Trade Committee will amend Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement, it is appropriate to publish it in the Official Journal of the European Union after its adoption.

               Proposal for a
            
            
               COUNCIL DECISION
            
            
               on the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the Trade Committee established by the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Korea, of the other part, as regards the amendment of Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement
            
            
               THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
            
            
               Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 207(3) and the first subparagraph of Article 207(4), in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
            
         
         
            
               Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
            
            
               Whereas:
            
            
               (1)The Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Korea on the other part ("The Parties" and " the FTA" or "the Agreement") signed on 6 October 2010, was concluded by the Union by Council Decision (EU) 2015/2169 of 1 October 2015. It has been applied as of 1 July 2011
                  3
               . 
            
            
               (2)Article 15.1 of the Agreement establishes a Trade Committee, which may, inter alia, consider amendments to the Agreement or amend provisions of the Agreement in cases specifically provided for in the Agreement. Article 15.5.2 of the Agreement establishes that the Trade Committee may decide to amend the Annexes, Appendices, Protocols and Notes to the Agreement through a decision subject to the Parties’ respective applicable legal requirements and procedures.
            
            
               (3)Article 3(d) of Annex 2-C of the Agreement mandates the Parties to review Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C no less than every three years from the entry into force of the Agreement with a view to furthering the acceptance of products as set out in subparagraph (a) of the same Article, taking into account any regulatory developments that may have occurred internationally or in the Parties. It further specifies that any modifications to Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 shall be decided upon by the Trade Committee.
            
            
               (4)Since the FTA began to apply in September 2010, the technical regulations mentioned in Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement have changed as well as some of the product coverage. In order to take into account these developments, EU and Korea have modified the technical regulations while at the same time maintaining the same degree of market access covered by Article 1.2 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement. 
            
            
               (5)It is therefore appropriate to determine the Union position in relation to the amendment of Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement,
            
            
               HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
            
            
               Article 1
            
            
               The position to be adopted on behalf of the Union within the Trade Committee established by Article 15.1 of the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Korea on the other part , as regards the amendment of Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement shall be based on the draft decision of the Trade Committee attached to this Decision.
            
            
               Article 2
            
            
               This Decision is addressed to the Commission.

               DECISION No. 3 OF THE KOREA-EU TRADE COMMITTEE 
            
            
               of xx April 2019
            
            
               on the amendment of Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of the Annex 2-C of the Korea-EU Free Trade Agreement 
            
            
               THE TRADE COMMITTEE,
            
            
               Having regard to the Free Trade Agreement between the Republic of Korea (‘Korea’), of the one part, and the European Union (‘EU’) and its Member States, of the other part, (hereinafter the ‘Agreement’ and the ‘Parties’, respectively), and in particular Articles 15.1.4(c) and 15.5.2 thereof, and Article 3(d) of Annex 2-C thereof,
            
            
               Whereas:
            
            
               (1)Pursuant to Article 15.1.4(c) of the Agreement, the Trade Committee established by the Parties may consider amendments to the Agreement or amend provisions of the Agreement in cases specifically provided for in the Agreement. 
            
            
               (2)Article 15.5.2 of the Agreement provides that a decision of the Trade Committee to amend the Annexes, Appendices, Protocols and Notes to the Agreement may be adopted by the Parties, subject to their respective applicable legal requirements and procedures. 
            
            
               (3)Article 3(d) of Annex 2-C of the Agreement mandates the Parties to review Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 of Annex 2-C no less than every three years from the entry into force of the Agreement with a view to furthering the acceptance of products as set out in subparagraph (a) of the same Article, taking into account any regulatory developments that may have occurred internationally or in the Parties. It further specifies that any modifications to Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 shall be decided upon by the Trade Committee.
            
            
               (4)Korea and EU have modified the technical regulations in order to maintain the same degree of market access covered by Article 1.2 of Annex 2-C of the Agreement. Moreover, the reference to “UNECE” in Appendices 2-C-2 and 2-C-3 should now read as references to “UN Reg.” following the Agreement concerning the Adoption of Harmonized Technical United Nations Regulations for Wheeled Vehicles, Equipment and Parts which can be Fitted and/or be Used on Wheeled Vehicles and the Conditions for Reciprocal Recognition of Approvals Granted on the Basis of these United Nations Regulations (Revision 3)
                  1
                of 20 October 2017.
            
            
               (5)Table 1 of Appendix 2-C-2 has been modified in the following way: 
            
            
               (a)Since UN Regulations apply on a compulsory basis in the EU, for simplicity reasons it has been decided to delete the references to EU Regulations (e.g. GSR) and Directives in the “Corresponding EU Technical Regulation” column. and the column has been left blank. 
            
            
               (b)However, where there are no applicable UN Regulations or where the scope of UN Regulations is inadequate, such as in the case of “Permissible sound level” for example, then the EU Regulations or Directives replace or complement the UN regulations. For this reason, a reference to “if existing” has been introduced in the “Corresponding EU Technical Regulation” line.
            
            
               (c) Concerning “Permissible sound level” and “Replacement silencing systems”, Regulation (EU) No 540/2014 has been added under the Corresponding EU Technical Regulation because it repeals Directive 70/157/EEC and applies in a time-staggered fashion.
            
            
               (d)“Emissions” has been replaced with “Emissions light vehicles” because the UN Reg. 83 requirement applies to M1 and N1 vehicle categories only. Moreover, the reference to “Directive 70/220/EEC” has been deleted because it has been repealed and replaced by Regulations (EC) No 715/2007, (EC) No 692/2008, (EU) No 459/2012, Regulation (EU) 2016/427, Regulation (EU) 2016/646, Regulation (EU) 2017/1151, Regulation (EU) 2017/1154 and Regulation (EU) 2018/1832, which have been added under the Corresponding EU Technical Regulation.
            
            
               (e)Concerning “Replacement catalytic converters”, the reference to “Directive 70/220/EEC” has been deleted because it has been repealed and replaced by and Regulations (EC) No 715/2007 and (EC) No 692/2008 which have been added under the Corresponding EU Technical Regulation. 
            
            
               (f)Moreover, for those subjects whose names change, such as from “Braking” and “Braking” which have been replaced with “Braking heavy vehicles” and “Braking light vehicles”, these were done for clarity purposes. 
            
            
               (g)On “Diesel smoke”, “Directive 72/306/EEC” has been deleted since it has been replaced by “Regulation (EC) No 692/2008” which has been added in Table 1 under the Corresponding EU Technical Regulation. 
            
         
         
            
               (h)On “CO2 emissions – Fuel consumption”, “Directive 80/1268/EEC” has been replaced by Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 which has been added in Table 1 under the Corresponding EU Technical Regulation, and the subject now refers to “CO2 emissions - Fuel consumption passenger cars with no more than eight seats in addition to the driver's seat” in order to fully respect the scope of that regulation. 
            
            
               (i)On “Engine power”, “Directive 80/1269/EEC” has been deleted since it has been replaced by Regulations (EC) No 692/2008 and (EU) No 582/2011 which have been added in Table 1 under the Corresponding EU Technical Regulation.
            
            
               (j)On “Emissions heavy duty vehicles”, “Directive 2005/55/EC” has been replaced by Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, Regulation (EU) No 582/2011 and Regulation (EU) 2016/1718, which have been added in Table 1 under the Corresponding EU Technical Regulation. The subject has also been renamed “Emissions heavy duty vehicles” because UN Regulation 49 applies to heavy duty vehicles (i.e. vehicles with a reference mass exceeding 2,610 kg).
