Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

The first item on the agenda today is the scrutiny of EU legislative proposals. There are three schedule B proposals for decision. COM (2015) 322 is a proposal for a Council decision establishing the position to be taken by the European Union within the General Council of the World Trade Organization on the accession of the Republic of Kazakhstan to the WTO. COM (2015) 464 is a proposal for a Council decision establishing the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the General Council of the World Trade Organization on the United States' request for a WTO waiver to extend the AGOA programme. COM (2015) 483 is a proposal for a Council decision establishing the position to be taken by the European Union within the ministerial conference of the World Trade Organization as regards an extension of the moratorium on customs duties on electronic transmissions and the moratorium on non-violation and situation complaints. COM (2015) 501 is a proposal for a Council decision establishing the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the Council for Trade in Services of the World Trade Organization to seek approval for preferential treatment going beyond market access to be unilaterally offered by the European Union to services and services suppliers of least developed countries on the basis of the LDC Services Waiver. It is proposed that the proposals listed in schedule B do not warrant further scrutiny. Is that agreed? Agreed.

I propose the suspension of the meeting for a few minutes to allow witnesses to take their seats. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Sitting suspended at 1.47 p.m. and resumed at 1.48 p.m.
