EC/Ukraine Partnership and Cooperation Agreement

In a letter of 24 July 1995 addressed to the European Parliament, the Council informed the President of the Parliament that the EC-Ukraine agreement still contained uncertainties as to the inclusion of certain articles in the legal basis. The Council therefore informed Parliament that it reserved the right to determine the appropriate legal basis in a conclusive manner at some later stage and that it would not fail to inform Parliament of this in good time. At the present stage the legal basis of the draft decision concluding the agreement is as follows: - Article 95 of the ECSC Treaty; - Articles 54 (second paragraph); 57, (second paragraph, last sentence); 66; 73c (second paragraph); 75; 84 (second paragraph); 99; 100; 100a; 113 and 235 of the Treaty on European Union in conjunction with Article 228 (second and third paragraphs, second line); - Article 101 of the EURATOM Treaty. However, the Council would be referring the provisional text of the agreement to Parliament in order to give the latter the opportunity to commence work. �
