    EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT DELEGATION TO THE PARLIAMENTARY COOPERATION COMMITTEES EU-ARMENIA, EU-AZERBAIJAN AND EU-GEORGIA INFORMATION NOTE ON THE WORK OF THE DELEGATION TO THE PARLIAMENTARY COOPERATION COMMITTEES EU-ARMENIA, EU-AZERBAIJAN AND EU-GEORGIA DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR EXTERNAL POLICIES OF THE UNION ___________ 3 July 2009 APB/ES 1 INTRODUCTION The relations between the European Parliament and the parliaments of the republics of South Caucasus - Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia - are conducted within the framework of the Partnership and Cooperation Agreements (PCAs). These Agreements between the South Caucasus states and the European Union and its Member States were signed on 22 April 1996 in Luxembourg and entered into force on 1 July 1999. A key element of each Agreement is the process of interparliamentary cooperation that was established. For all three states a separate Parliamentary Cooperation Committee (PCC) exerts parliamentary control over the implementation of the agreements and acts as an open forum for debate on questions of mutual interest. The PCC has the right to receive information from the Cooperation Council and the Cooperation Committee (executive) and can adopt recommendations to the Cooperation Committee. The European Parliament is represented on the three PCCs by the Delegation for relations with the South Caucasus Republics. Between 1999 and 2004 the Delegation was chaired by Mrs Ursula SCHLEICHER (EPP-ED, Germany) From June 2004 the Delegation has been chaired by Mrs Marie Anne ISLER-BEGUIN (Verts/ALE - France). Prior to 1999 there was already a form of parliamentary cooperation based on meetings between the European Parliament's Delegation and the Delegations of the three republics.
