"Mutual recognition agreements (MRAs) enable the conformity assessment of regulated products, giving each of their parties the authority to test and certify products against the regulatory requirements of the other party, in its own territory and prior to export. Their objective is to lift technical barriers to trade, while safeguarding the health, safety and environmental objectives of each party. This agreement, which amends the MRA with Australia, has been negotiated by the Commission with the objective of improving and simplifying the functioning of the MRA, which entered into force on 1 January 1999. Its amendments are intended to allow greater flexibility in the structure of the sectoral annexes of the MRA, to remove unnecessary restrictions on trade between the parties, to reduce the administrative burden related to the management of the MRA, and to facilitate and clarify the operation of the MRA. For these reasons, I voted for this recommendation calling on Parliament to approve this agreement."@en1
