What Commission Decision of 30 September 2024 approving on behalf of the European Union, the position to be taken as regards amendments to Annexes 10-A and 10-B to the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of Singapore requires

Commission Decision C/2024/5871, adopted on 30 September 2024 and published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 1 October 2024, approves on behalf of the European Union the position to be taken by the EU-Singapore Trade Committee regarding amendments to Annexes 10-A and 10-B to the Free Trade Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of Singapore, which entered into force on 21 November 2019. The Decision authorises EU representatives in the Trade Committee to approve the adoption of a Trade Committee Decision that amends the lists of Geographical Indications (GIs) protected under the Agreement. The core obligation flows from Articles 10.17.3 and 10.18 of the Agreement. Article 10.17.3 requires the Trade Committee to list in Annex 10-B (Protected Geographical Indications) the names from Annex 10-A after the conclusion of protection procedures. The Republic of Singapore has completed protection procedures for four names previously listed in Annex 10-A ('Bayerisches Bier', 'Guijuelo', 'Siurana', 'Utiel-Requena') and twenty-one additional names not listed in Annex 10-A. Consequently, Annexes 10-A and 10-B are to be replaced in their entirety, adding twenty-five names as protected GIs of the Union in Annex 10-B, removing four names from Annex 10-A, and updating two name changes ('Alsace' to 'Alsace / Vin d'Alsace' and 'Jamón de Teruel' to 'Jamón de Teruel / Paleta de Teruel') in Annex 10-A.
