the arrangements have been made with a view to affording relief from double taxation in relation to capital gains tax, corporation tax, income tax and petroleum revenue tax and taxes of a similar character imposed by the laws of the Kingdom of Belgium and the laws of its regions and communities and for the purposes of assisting international tax enforcement; and

it is expedient that those arrangements should have effect.
