Proposal for a
COUNCIL DECISION
on the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union in the Joint Consultative
Working Group established by the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the
European Atomic Energy Community as regards the amendment of its rules of
procedure
EN EN
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1. SUBJECT MATTER OF THE PROPOSAL
The Commission proposes that the Council establishes the position to be adopted on the
Union's behalf in the Joint Consultative Working Group established by the Protocol on
Ireland/Northern Ireland (‘the Protocol’) to the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European
Atomic Energy Community (‘the Withdrawal Agreement’) on a Joint Consultative Working
Group decision to amend its rules of procedure.
2. CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL
2.1. The Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy
Community
The Withdrawal Agreement sets out the arrangements for the orderly withdrawal of the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (‘United Kingdom’) from the
European Union (‘Union’) and the European Atomic Energy Community. This Agreement
entered into force on 1 February 2020.
2.2. The Joint Consultative Working Group
The Joint Consultative Working Group (‘working group’) was established under Article 15(1)
of the Protocol to serve as a forum for the exchange of information and mutual consultation
on the implementation of the Protocol.
The working group is composed of representatives of the Union and the United Kingdom and
carries out its functions under the supervision of the Specialised Committee on issues related
to the implementation of the Protocol, established under Article 165 of the Withdrawal
Agreement, to which it reports.
The working group has no power to take binding decisions other than the power to adopt its
own rules of procedure. The working group has adopted its own rules of procedure at its first
meeting on 29 January 2021 (the ‘Rules of Procedure’).
Within the working group:
(a) the Union and the United Kingdom exchange, in a timely manner, information
about planned, ongoing and final relevant implementation measures in relation
to the Union acts listed in the Annexes to the Protocol;
(b) the Union informs the United Kingdom about planned Union acts within the
scope of this Protocol, including Union acts that amend or replace the Union
acts listed in the Annexes to the Protocol;
(c) the Union provides to the United Kingdom all information the Union considers
relevant to allow the United Kingdom to fully comply with its obligations
under the Protocol; and
(d) the United Kingdom provides to the Union all information that Member States
are required to provide to one another or to the institutions, bodies, offices or
agencies of the Union pursuant to the Union acts listed in the Annexes to the
Protocol.
EN 1 EN
The working group is co-chaired by the Union and the United Kingdom. The working group
in principle meets on a monthly basis as from the end of the transition period, unless
otherwise decided by the co-chairs by mutual consent. Where necessary, the Union and the
United Kingdom exchange information referred to in points (c) and (d) above between
meetings.
The Union ensures that all views expressed by the United Kingdom in the working group and
all information provided by the United Kingdom in the working group, including technical
and scientific data, are communicated to the relevant institutions, bodies, offices and agencies
of the Union without undue delay.
2.3. The envisaged decision of the working group
The purpose of the envisaged decision for which the Union’s position should be established is
for the working group to adopt amendments to its own Rules of Procedure to provide for
structured sub-groups, which will assist the working group in carrying out its functions as an
effective forum for the exchange of information and mutual consultation.
3. POSITION TO BE TAKEN ON THE UNION'S BEHALF
The proper functioning of the working group requires rules of procedure covering, among
others, the exchange of information regarding the composition of the delegations and
participation in meetings, meetings of the working group, the drawing up of the agenda and
the minutes, decisions, as well as the confidentiality and working language.
In view of the purpose of the working group and proposal to create structured sub-groups to
assist the working group in carrying out its functions as an effective forum for the exchange
of information and mutual consultation, the existing Rules of Procedure must be amended.
The position of the Union should therefore be to support the adoption of a decision by the
working group amending its Rules of Procedure, in line with the draft decision attached to this
proposal.
4. LEGAL BASIS
Article 218(9) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) provides for
decisions establishing ‘the positions to be adopted on the Union’s behalf in a body set up by
an agreement, when that body is called upon to adopt acts having legal effects, with the
exception of acts supplementing or amending the institutional framework of the agreement.’
The decision, which the working group is called upon to adopt, constitutes an act having legal
effects.
The envisaged act does not supplement or amend the institutional framework of the
Withdrawal Agreement.
Therefore, the procedural legal basis for the proposed decision is Article 218(9) TFEU.
The sole objective and content of the envisaged act relates to establishing the Union’s position
on the amendment to the Rules of Procedure of a body established under the Withdrawal
Agreement.
The conclusion of the Agreement was based on Article 50(2) of the Treaty on European
Union.
The legal basis of the proposed decision should therefore be Article 50(2) of the Treaty on
European Union, in conjunction with Article 218(9) TFEU.
EN 2 EN
5. PUBLICATION OF THE ENVISAGED ACT
As the purpose of the decision of the working group is to amend its Rules of Procedure, it is
appropriate to publish the decision of the working group, including the amended Rules of
Procedure, in the Official Journal of the European Union after its adoption.

of procedure by mutual consent. The working group adopted its own rules of
procedure at its first meeting on 29 January 2021 (the ‘Rules of Procedure’).
(5) It is necessary to amend the Rules of Procedure to allow the working group to be
supported by structured sub-groups in order to improve the manner in which the

operation of the working group, and identified practices that would improve the
manner in which the working group carries out its tasks as defined in Article 15 of
the Protocol.

able to discuss its views in the working group on Union acts within the scope of the
