DECISION OF THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE

No 57/2017

of 17 March 2017

amending Annex II (Technical regulations, standards, testing and certification) to the EEA Agreement [2018/1821]

THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,

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

Legislation regarding spirit drinks 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 introduction to Chapter XXVII of Annex II to the EEA Agreement.
