utvrđujući medicinske operativne regionalne sposobnosti i prepoznajući potrebu za boljim korišćenjem postojećih vojnomedicinskih sposobnosti u regionu zapadnog Balkana i primećujući da učešće u inicijativi za multinacionalnu saradnju omogućava državama da efikasnije koriste svoje medicinske snage i sredstva, bez dupliranja i gubitka delotvornosti,

pozivajući se na cilj razvoja koncepcije koja je odobrena potpisivanjem Izjave o namerama Grupe za procenu kapaciteta Balkanskih vojnomedicinskih snaga iz 2014. godine,

sporazumeli su se o sledećem:

Član1.

Vodeća zemlja (VZ): Strana koja obezbeđuje, na bazi rotacije, osnovnu infrastrukturu, osoblje i opremu koji su neophodni za sposobnost 2. nivoa, pored svoje obaveze kao Strane, kako je definisano u daljem tekstu i u ugovorima o sprovođenju.

Sponzor: svaka zemlja, organizacija ili ustanova, osim učesnika BMS, koja obezbeđuje finansijsku i/ili drugu podršku za BMS kako je definisano u odgovarajućem ugovoru.

Član2.

Cilj Sporazuma

Svrha ovog sporazuma je da se regulišu postupci i nadležnosti između Strana u vezi sa osnivanjem i funkcionisanjem BMS.

Član3.

MisijaBMS

Da bi se utvrdila, unapredila i olakšala upotreba medicinskih operativnih sposobnosti u regionu zapadnog Balkana, svrha BMS je da obezbedi medicinsku podršku sposobnosti 2. nivoa u operacijama reagovanja u kriznim situacijama na održiv način i da se brzo reaguje u širokom spektru situacija otklanjanja posledica katastrofa u regionu. Cilj je da se omogući zemljama učesnicama da obezbede neophodne sposobnosti za međunarodne operacije, unaprede nacionalne kapacitete za pružanje medicinskih usluga, kao i da se dostignu nacionalni ciljevi i ciljevi snaga NATO i Partnerstva za mir (PzM) odnosne partnerski ciljevi (ciljane sposobnosti).

Radi ispunjenja pomenutih ciljeva, BMS treba da bude u stanju da:

a) planira, izvodi i učestvuje u multinacionalnim aktivnostima obuke u cilju dostizanja i održavanja odgovarajućeg stepena gotovosti, sposobnosti i operativne efikasnosti, kao i doprinosa poboljšanju interoperabilnosti;

b) učestvuje u misijama pod mandatom Ujedinjenih nacija (UN) u okviru dogovorene zone odgovornosti;

v) obavlja i druge poslove o kojima se Strane zajednički dogovore.

Član4.

Aktiviranje BMS

BMS je na raspolaganju za eventualno aktiviranje:

a) na zahtev jedne ili više Strana ili

b) na zahtev odgovarajuće međunarodne organizacije ili

v) na zahtev bilo koje druge zemlje.

Na osnovu prethodne saglasnosti državnih organa svake od Strana, aktiviranje BMS zavisi od odluke Upravnog odbora.

Član5.

Struktura BMS, komandni odnosi i donošenje odluka

BMS obavlja svoju funkciju u miru i u kriznim situacijama, kao što je detaljno navedeno u ovom članu.

BMS je multinacionalna medicinska jedinica kao pokretna modularna vojna sposobnost izgrađena na postojećim nacionalnim medicinskim sposobnostima.

Stalna organizacija BMS (SO BMS) je stalno mirnodopsko telo BMS odgovorno za organizovanje i planiranje aktivnosti obuke, kao i za mirnodopske i/ili nepredviđene operacije BMS. Ono je odgovorno i za pripremu jedinica, obuku i sertifikaciju.

Upravni odbor (UO) je najviši organ odlučivanja, koji se sastoji od ovlašćenih političkih i vojnih predstavnika svake Strane. UO donosi svoje odluke jednoglasno.

Detaljna struktura BMS i komandni odnosi definišu se u okviru memoranduma o razumevanju ili drugim relevantnim dokumentima koje potpisuju odgovarajući nadležni organi Strana.

Oprema koja se nabavi zajedničkim finansijskim sredstvima, kao i oprema koju obezbede sponzori predstavlja imovinu BMS. Pravo vlasništva nad nacionalnom opremom koju obezbeđuje ZD zadržava ZD.

Detaljni principi i načini finansiranja BMS definišu se u okviru memoranduma o razumevanju.

Član8.
