  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order gives effect to the Headquarters Agreement between the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the North-East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (the “Agreement”) (Cm 4265).\nThe Agreement came into force on 18th February 1999 and was implemented under the European Communities (Immunities and Privileges of the North-East Atlantic Fisheries Commission) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/278) (the “1999 Order”). The 1999 Order became secondary assimilated law within the meaning of section 12(2) of the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Act 2023 (c. 28). The European Communities (Immunities and Privileges of the North Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organization and North-East Atlantic Fisheries Commission) (Revocation) Regulations 2026 (S.I. 2026/518) (the “2026 Regulations”) revoke the 1999 Order. This Order replaces it, in order to ensure continuity in the privileges and immunities granted to the Commission under the Agreement. Both this Order and the 2026 Regulations come into force on 31st March 2027.\nThe Agreement is available at: https://treaties.fcdo.gov.uk/awweb/pdfopener?md=1&did=69354. Copies can also be obtained on request from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, King Charles Street, London, SW1A 2AH.\nA full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.",
