THE PARTNERSHIP COMMITTEE,

Having regard to the Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Armenia, of the other part (‘the Agreement’), and in particular Article 339(1) thereof,

Whereas:

In accordance with Article 339(1) of the Agreement, the Partnership Committee established under Article 363 of the Agreement is to establish a list of at least 15 individuals who are willing and able to serve as arbitrators (‘the list of arbitrators’).

Article 339(1) of the Agreement provides that the list of arbitrators is to be composed of three sub-lists: one sub-list for each Party and one sub-list of individuals who are not nationals of either Party and who are to serve as chairperson of the arbitration panel. Each sub-list is to include at least five individuals.

The European Union and the Republic of Armenia have each proposed five candidate arbitrators and have agreed on five third-country nationals who are to serve as chairperson of an arbitration panel. All listed individuals are willing and able to serve as arbitrators.

To ensure the proper functioning of the Agreement, in particular Chapter 13 of Title VI thereof, the list of arbitrators should be established by the Partnership Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
