(1) The Agreement between the European Union, of the one part, and New Zealand, of the other part, on the participation of New Zealand in Union programmes5 (‘the Agreement’) was signed by the Union and the Government of New Zealand, and provisionally applied from 9 July 2023 in accordance with Council Decision (EU) 2023/14756.

(2) Article 14(1) of the Agreement establishes a committee, composed of representatives of the Parties (‘the Joint Committee’), to ensure the administration and proper implementation of the Agreement.

(3) Article 14(3) of the Agreement provides that the Joint Committee is to adopt its Rules of Procedure.

(4) The Joint Committee is expected to adopt a decision adopting its Rules of Procedure.

(5) It is therefore appropriate to establish the position to be taken on behalf of the Union in the Joint Committee on the basis of the attached draft Decision of the Joint Committee on its Rules of Procedure in order to ensure the effective implementation of the Agreement.
