DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE No 92/2021

of 19 March 2021

amending Annex I (Veterinary and phytosanitary matters) to the EEA Agreement [2024/129]

THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,

Having regard to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (“the EEA Agreement”), and in particular Article 98 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EU) 2019/4 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the manufacture, placing on the market and use of medicated feed, amending Regulation (EC) No 183/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Council Directive 90/167/EEC ( 1 ) is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

(2) Regulation (EU) 2019/4 repeals, with effect from 28 January 2022, Council Directive 90/167/EEC ( 2 ) , which is incorporated into the EEA Agreement and which is consequently to be repealed under the EEA Agreement with effect from 28 January 2022.

(3) This Decision concerns legislation regarding veterinary matters and feedingstuffs. Legislation regarding veterinary matters and feedingstuffs shall not apply to Liechtenstein as long as the application of the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation on trade in agricultural products is extended to Liechtenstein, as specified in the sectoral adaptations to Annex I to the EEA Agreement. This Decision is therefore not to apply to Liechtenstein.
