  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order revokes and replaces the European Convention on Extradition (Fiscal Offences) Order 1993 (S.I. 1993/2663) (“the 1993 Order”) so as to take account of the revocation and replacement of the European Convention on Extradition Order 1990 (S.I. 1990/1507) (“the 1990 Order”) by the European Convention on Extradition Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/962) (“the 2001 Order”). The 1993 Order resulted from the United Kingdom’s becoming a party to the Second Additional Protocol to the European Convention on Extradition (the UK being already a party to the Convention) and accepting Chapter II of the Protocol (which provides for extradition between the UK and those States Parties which have accepted Chapter II in respect of certain fiscal offences). This Order updates the references to the Convention, and the States parties to it, (now contained in the 2001 Order) and takes account of the additional States which have become parties to the Protocol and accepted Chapter II, namely Albania, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Malta, Romania, the Russian Federation, Slovakia, Slovenia and the Ukraine, together with any reservations and declarations made by those States.",
