H-9. PROTOCOL TO THE TREATY CONCERNING THE PERMANENT
NEUTRALITY AND OPERATION OF THE PANAMA CANAL
a. Germany (Federal Republic of):
(Declaration made at the time of accession)
The Protocol to the Treaty Concerning the Permanent
Neutrality and Operation of the Panama Canal shall apply to
Berlin (West) with effect from the date on which it enters into
force for the Federal Republic of Germany.
b. Netherlands (the Kingdom of):
(Provided the following information)
The Royal Netherlands Embassy presents its compliments to
the Secretary General of the Organization of American States
and has the honor to request the attention of the Organization
of American States, with respect to its capacity of depositary
of the conventions mentioned in the addendum, for the
following.
Effective January 1, 1986, the island of Aruba -formerly
part of the Netherlands Antilles- obtained internal autonomy as
a country within the Kingdom of The Netherlands.
Consequently the Kingdom of The Netherlands as of January
1, 1986, consists of three countries, to wit: the Netherlands
proper, the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba.
Since the above-mentioned event concerns only a change in
internal constitutional relations within the Kingdom of The
Netherlands, and as the Kingdom as such, under international
law, will remain the subject with which treaties are
concluded, the aforementioned change will have no consequences
in international law with regard to treaties concluded by the
Kingdom, the application of which (treaties) were extended to
the Netherlands Antilles, including Aruba.
These treaties, thus, will remain applicable for Aruba in
its new status as autonomous country within the Kingdom of The
Netherlands effective January 1, 1986.
Consequently the treaties -referred to in the addendum to
this note- to which the Kingdom of The Netherlands is a Party,
and which have been extended to the Netherlands Antilles will
as of January 1, 1986, apply to all three countries of the
Kingdom of The Netherlands.
The Embassy would appreciate if the other Parties
concerned would be notified of the above.
The Royal Netherlands Embassy avails itself of this
opportunity to renew to the Organization of American States the
assurances of its highest consideration.
