Made
19th March 1997
Coming into force in accordance with Article 1
At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 19th day of March 1997
Present,
The Queen's Most Excellent Majesty in Council
Whereas a draft of this Order has been laid before Parliament in accordance with section 1 of the European Communities Act 1972(1) and has been approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament:
Now, therefore, Her Majesty, in exercise of the powers conferred on Her by section 1(3) of the European Communities Act 1972 or otherwise in Her Majesty vested, is pleased, by and with the advice of Her Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:-
1. This Order may be cited as the European Communities (Definition of Treaties) (Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Communities and their Member States and the State of Israel) Order 1997. It shall come into force in respect of the treaty specified in the Schedule to this Order on the date on which the treaty enters into force for the United Kingdom. This date will be notified in the London, Edinburgh and Belfast Gazettes.
2. The treaty specified in the Schedule to this Order is to be regarded as a Community Treaty as defined in section 1(2) of the European Communities Act 1972.
N. H. Nicholls
Clerk of the Privy Council
The Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the State of Israel, of the other part, signed at Brussels on 20th November 1995(2).
(This note is not part of the Order)
The Order declares the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Communities and their Member States and the State of Israel, signed on 20th November 1995, to be a Community Treaty as defined in section 1(2) of the European Communities Act 1972. The Agreement establishes an association with the objectives of providing an appropriate framework for political dialogue, of the harmonious development of economic relations between the Community and Israel through the expansion of trade in goods and services, the liberalization of the right of establishment and of public procurement, the free movement of capital and the intensification of co-operation in science and technology; of encouraging regional co-operation; and of promoting co-operation in other areas of reciprocal interest. The principal effect of declaring this Agreement to be a Community Treaty as so defined is to bring into play, in relation to it, the provisions of section 2 of the European Communities Act 1972 which provides for the implementation of treaties so specified.
1972 c. 68; section 1(2) was amended by the European Union (Accessions) Act 1994 c. 38.
Cm 3239.
