(1) The Agreement on the European Economic Area4 ('the EEA Agreement') entered into force on 1 January 1994.

(2) Pursuant to Article 98 of the EEA Agreement, the EEA Joint Committee may decide to amend, inter alia, Annex XIII (Transport) to the EEA Agreement.

(3) Regulation on common rules and standards for ship inspection and survey organisations,5 as well as 14 related legal acts, should be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.

(4) Annex XIII (Transport) to the EEA Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5) The position of the Union within the EEA Joint Committee should therefore be based on the attached draft Decision.
