Article 2
The Framework Agreement on Comprehensive Partnership and Cooperation between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and Republic of Indonesia, of the other part, signed by the United Kingdom at Luxembourg on 26 October 2009 and by the European Community at Jakarta on 9 November 2009(2).
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order declares the Framework Agreement on Comprehensive Partnership and Cooperation between the European Community and its Member States and the Republic of Indonesia, signed on 9 November 2009 to be an EU Treaty as defined in section 1(2) of the European Communities Act 1972.
This Agreement provides a framework aiming to consolidate and strengthen the European Union's and its Member States' political, economic and trade relations with the Republic of Indonesia, and promote democratic reforms, economic growth, sustainable development and action against poverty there. The Agreement will allow for further engagement between the Parties in a broad range of areas, including climate change and energy, science and technology, maritime and aviation transport. It also addresses illegal migration, money laundering and illicit drugs. In addition, the Agreement includes clauses on organised crime and corruption, human rights and combating the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, which are treated as essential elements of the Agreement.
The principal effect of declaring this Agreement to be an EU Treaty so defined is that the provisions of section 2 of the European Communities Act 1972 apply to it.
A Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been produced for this instrument, as it has no impact on the costs to UK business, charities or voluntary bodies.
