The signing on behalf of the European Union of the Convention on Transparency in Treaty-based Investor-State Arbitration (‘the Convention’) is hereby authorised, subject to the conclusion of the said Convention.

Article 3

Open ↗

When signing the Convention on behalf of the Union, the Commission shall make a reservation in accordance with article 3(1)( a ) of the Convention according to which the Union shall not apply the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Rules on Transparency in Treaty-based Investor-State Arbitration (‘the Rules’) when acting as a respondent in the case of a dispute initiated pursuant to the Energy Charter Treaty against a Member State which is not a party to the Convention unless agreed upon otherwise with the Member State concerned.

Article 4

Open ↗

Five years after the entry into force of the Convention for the Union, the Commission shall submit a report on the operation of the Rules in disputes where the Union has been acting as a respondent. On the basis of that report, the Council, on a proposal from the Commission, shall re-evaluate the reservation referred to in Article 3 and adopt a decision on the amendment or withdrawal of that reservation. If no agreement can be found in the Council, the reservation referred to in Article 3 shall remain valid, subject to periodic review every five years. The Council shall adopt a decision on the withdrawal of that reservation if all Member States conclude the Convention or when Article 47(3) of the Energy Charter Treaty ceases to have effect for the Union.
