Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 72/166/EEC of 24 April 1972 on the approximation of the laws of Member States relating to insurance against civil liability in respect of the use of motor vehicles, and to the enforcement of the obligation to insure against such liability, and in particular Article 7(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) On 30 May 2002 a multilateral agreement, hereinafter the Agreement, was concluded between the national insurers’ bureaux of the Member States of the European Economic Area and other associate States.
