The Partnership and Co-operation Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States and the Republic of Moldova, signed at Brussels on 28th November 1994(2).
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order declares the Partnership and Co-operation Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States and the Republic of Moldova, signed on 28th November 1994, to be a Community Treaty as defined in section 1(2) of the European Communities Act 1972. The Agreement establishes a Partnership with the objectives of providing an appropriate framework for political dialogue, promoting trade, investment and economic relations, providing a basis for legislative, economic, social, financial and cultural co-operation, and supporting Moldova's efforts to consolidate its democracy, develop its economy and complete the transition into a market economy. The principal effect of declaring this Agreement to be a Community Treaty as so defined is to bring into play, in relation to it, the provisions of section 2 of the European Communities Act 1972 which provides for the implementation of treaties so specified.
1972 c. 68; section 1(2) was amended by the European Union (Accessions) Act 1994 c. 38.
Cm 2863.
