EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


This Order declares the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Communities and their Member States and the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, signed on 27th April 2002, to be a Community Treaty as defined in section 1(2) of the European Communities Act 1972. The Agreement provides a framework for regular political dialogue between the parties, will establish a free trade area over a transitional period, and contains provisions concerning, inter alia, the right of establishment and supply of services, the movement of capital, competition policy and economic, social and cultural co-operation. 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 provide for the implementation of treaties so specified.
