Eurasian Intergovernmental Council approves list of exemptions and restrictions to be eliminated in 2021-2022
MINSK, Aug 20 – PrimePress. The Eurasian Intergovernmental Council has approved a list of one exemption and 13 restrictions on the internal market of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) to be eliminated in 2021-2022, the press service of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) said in a report.
“Forming the list is a time-consuming but very important process. In fact, today the heads of governments have identified the most sensitive obstacles for the Union that need to be removed in 2021-2022. Their fixation and further work on removal is another significant step in ensuring the functioning of the internal market without barriers, exemptions and restrictions," said ECE Board member (Minister) for Internal Markets, Informatization, ICT Gegham Vardanyan.
In order to optimize the work on eliminating the barriers on the list, the EEC together with the governments of the EEU states will prepare and propose an appropriate action plan (roadmap) for consideration by the EEU Council by 1 October 2021.
Gegham Vardanyan reported in May 21 that 81% of the qualified barriers had been eliminated fr om the internal market of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) by 2021.
According to the new edition of the methodology for clarifying barriers and obstacles in the EEU internal market, all barriers on the EEU markets fall into three categories - barriers, restrictions and exemptions. Barriers are those obstacles that arise because an EEU member state violates the norms of the Eurasian Union law. Restrictions are those obstacles that arise due to gaps in regulation at the EEU level (and in this case the norms of national legislation, which may be different in different countries, continue to work), or when there is a conflict between the norms in the EEU law itself. Exceptions include obstacles that arise due to statutory exemptions, wh ere a state, when signing the EEU Treaty, has provided for the possibility of exemptions in relation to certain goods. End
