(2015/C 417/08)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE GOVERNMENTS OF THE MEMBER STATES

RECALLING

The Resolution of the Council and the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States, meeting within the Council on the representation of the EU Member States in the Foundation Board of WADA and the coordination of the EU and its Member States' positions prior to WADA meetings and in particular the fact that by 31 December 2015 the experience gained from the application of this resolution shall be reviewed (1).

NOTING

The discussions at the Informal Ministerial Meeting for Sport that took place in Luxembourg on 6-7 July 2015, where views about the application of the resolution were exchanged.

AGREE THAT

The representation system and the coordination arrangements as set out in the 2011 Resolution should stay in place.

RECOGNISE THAT THE FOLLOWING ELEMENTS SHOULD BE REINFORCED:

more regular involvement of the Council Presidency in Council of Europe (including CAHAMA) and WADA meetings;

more systematic contributions from the Commission in the preparation of the draft EU mandate on the issues of EU competence;

increasing the scientific expertise among Member States and the Council Presidency e.g. by using the existing informal network of experts;

improving ad hoc and on the spot coordination meetings as well as preparations for the ‘public authority meetings’.

AGREE THAT

By 31 December 2018, the Council and the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States, meeting within the Council, shall review once more the experience gained from the further application of the 2011 Resolution and consider whether any adjustments to the arrangements established by this Resolution are needed.
