      to Decision of the EEA Joint Committee No 121/2013 of 14 June 2013 incorporating Commission Decision 2009/750/EC into the EEA Agreement
      
         ‘The Contracting Parties acknowledge that in view of the specific situation of Liechtenstein, its very small road network as well as the fact that Liechtenstein introduced on 1 January 2001 a Heavy Vehicle Fee, which is based on a bilateral agreement between Liechtenstein and Switzerland and which is to be levied at the common border posts by virtue of its Customs Union Treaty with Switzerland, questions relating to the interoperability of electronic road toll systems in Liechtenstein are dealt with in close cooperation with Switzerland.’
