The Committee on International Trade adopted the report by Adam SZEJNFELD (EPP, PL) on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on certain procedures for applying the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, of the one part, and Kosovo of the other part.
The committee recommended that the European Parliaments position adopted at first reading following the ordinary legislative procedure should amend the Commission proposal as follows.
The report stipulated that in accordance with the proposed Regulation, the examination procedure shall apply, in particular, for the adoption of implementing acts relating to the common commercial policy. However, the advisory procedure shall apply in duly justified cases. Where the Agreement provides for the possibility, in exceptional and critical circumstances, to apply forthwith measures necessary to deal with the situation, the Commission should adopt such implementing acts immediately.
Members deleted Article 9 of the proposed Regulation which provided that for the purposes of implementing Article 34 of the Agreement, a Union surveillance of imports of goods listed in Annex V of Protocol 3 to the Agreement shall be established.
