Notice (OJ 2020 L 444 of 31.12.2020, p. 1): "Due to the very late completion of the negotiations between the European Union and the United Kingdom, on 24 December 2020, and, as a consequence, the very late availability of all the language versions of the Agreements, on 27 December 2020, it has not been materially possible to proceed to the final legal-linguistic revision in all 24 language versions of the texts of the Agreements before their signature by the Parties and their publication in the Official Journal. Given the urgency of the situation, with the transition period provided for by the Withdrawal Agreement of 1 February 2020 ending on 31 December 2020, it has been however considered in the interest of both the European Union and the United Kingdom to sign and publish the texts of the Agreements as they resulted from the negotiations, without prior legal-linguistic revision. As a result, the texts published here may contain technical errors and inaccuracies that will be corrected in the coming months.
As provided for in Article FINPROV.9 of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, Article 21 of the Agreement concerning Security Procedures for Exchanging and Protecting Classified Information and Article 25 of the Agreement for Cooperation on the Safe and Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy, the versions of those Agreements in the Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish and Swedish languages will be subject to final legal-linguistic revision and the authentic and definitive texts resulting from such legal-linguistic revision will replace ab initio the signed versions of the Agreements.
These authentic and definitive texts of the Agreements will be published in the Official Journal of the European Union in due time by 30 April 2021."
