SCHEDULE

Framework Cooperation Agreement between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Chile, of the other part(2).

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order declares the Framework Co-operation Agreement between the European Community and its Member States and the Republic of Chile, done at Florence on 21 June 1996, to be a Community Treaty as defined in section 1(2) of the European Communities Act 1972. The objectives of the Agreement are to strengthen existing relations between the parties on the basis of reciprocity and mutual interest, paving the way for the progressive and reciprocal liberalisation of trade, leading ultimately to the establishment of a political and economic association between the EU and Chile. To those ends, the Agreement covers political dialogue, trade and economic matters, and co-operation in various other matters of mutual interest, with the broad objective of forging closer relations between the parties and their respective institutions. 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.
