      DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE
   
   No 152/2005
   of 2 December 2005
   amending Annex XIII (Transport) to the EEA Agreement
   THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,
   Having regard to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, as amended by the Protocol adjusting the Agreement on the European Economic Area, hereinafter referred to as ‘the Agreement’, and in particular Article 98 thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Annex XIII to the Agreement was amended by Decision of the EEA Joint Committee No 122/2005 (1).
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               Directive 2004/36/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 April 2004 on the safety of third-country aircraft using Community airports (2), is to be incorporated into the Agreement.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               The very small territory of Liechtenstein as well as its specific geographical structure and the fact that air services, including those of third-country aircrafts, are only provided in exceptionally limited numbers in Liechtenstein have to be taken into account.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               The total amount of air traffic in Liechtenstein and the fact that no international regular air services to or from Liechtenstein are available and that the civil aviation infrastructure in Liechtenstein consists of only one heliport has to be taken into consideration,
            
         HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
