Proposal for a Council Decision on the position to be taken by the European Union within the Cooperation Committee established by the Agreement on Cooperation and Customs Union between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of San Marino, of the other part, with regard to the adoption of provisions on the coordination of social security systems

Article 22 of the Cooperation and Customs Union Agreement between the European Community and the Republic of San Marino contains provisions for limited coordination between the social security systems of Member States and San Marino. A Decision of the Cooperation Committee established by the Agreement is required in order that the principles set out in Article 21 can take effect.

A number of other Agreements with third countries contain similar provisions on the coordination of social security systems. This proposal is part of a package of proposals which includes similar proposals with regard to the Agreements with Montenegro, Albania and Turkey. A first package with similar proposals in respect of Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and Israel was adopted by the Council in October 2010.
