The objective of the EEA Agreement is to establish a dynamic and homogeneous EEA based on common rules. To ensure this, new EU acts are continuously incorporated into the EEA Agreement. This article consists of six Parts. After a short introduction in Part I, Part II explains the basic features of the EEA Agreement. Part III describes the process leading up to decisions by the EEA Joint Committee to incorporate new EU acts, explai‐ ning that each of the acts have gone through a thorough process in several steps involving the EFTA Secretariat, the EFTA States, the European Commission and the European External Action Service (EEAS), and in certain cases also the Euro‐ pean Council. Part IV explains in more detail the decisions by the EEA Joint Committee, and Part V addresses the entry into force of such decisions.

Im Rahmen des EWR-Übernahmeverfahrens sehen sich die Vertragsparteien des EWR-Abkom‐ mens mit unterschiedlichen Herausforderungen sowohl rechtlicher als auch prak‐ tischer Natur konfrontiert. Zum einen beeinflusst die beträchtliche Anzahl der am Verfahren teilnehmenden Akteure den EWR-Übernahmeprozess, wobei die EWR/ EFTA-Staaten und die EU-Seite jeweils mit einer Stimme sprechen. Zum anderen erwachsen Herausforderungen vor dem Hintergrund, dass die EU-Rechtsakte mithilfe des Beschlusses des Gemeinsamen EWR-Ausschusses an die institutionel‐ len und materiell-rechtlichen Vorgaben des EWR-Abkommens angepasst werden müssen, wie dies insbesondere im Hinblick auf die EU-Agenturen der Fall ist.","PeriodicalId":146343,"journal":{"name":"25 Jahre Europäischer Wirtschaftsraum","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116869917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
